When do I dig it up and do I replant it close to the original plant(Original plant is 3 +feet tall? It now has three leaves and is about 12 +inches tall. I only have room for 4 plants and I have 4 plants + the pup. I had just purchased all 4 about 0ne month ago and they have tripled in size. I haven't fertilized them yet, however I plan to do so this weekend. Thanks for your info, Larry |
