Re: When to plant out in Zone 6-7

dirt temp is just as or more important than the air temps. I know if you plant in the cold dirt you are way better off having left them inside for a few more weeks.

Re: Pls help me identify this problem and suggest treatmwnt

you can't tell from pic if the rot is from the bottom up or not. if it is you need to cut down to where it has started from and remove all black rot, even if it goes all the way down to the corm.

Re: Pls help me identify this problem and suggest treatmwnt
