Default Re: Super Dwarf

last winter (coldest in 50 years) my SDC got zapped in my unheated GH. I brought it inside and placed it into a sunny window. The p-stem died but the mat started pupping like crazy. Spring came, it went back outside, seperated multiple pups, the main p-stem is full sized again. This winter, I'm probably going to add some Christmas lights or other heat source to the GH. I hope it is a little milder winter also, I would imagine SDC would choke if I tried to bring it in the house to grow overwinter.

I did send a pup to a lady in Colorado that lives at high elevation (9000'?), she has a GH with heating, and gets more light in winter than summer due to the altitude and reflection off the snow (according to her). I will be very intrigued to see if she is able to get it to fruit.

good luck,
