so my question is:
do I water them? its winter and i don't want root rot however, temperatures are 10+ degrees Celcius.
so what should I do?
any suggestion?
thanks
Your are in full grow mode....your going to need some water.
You might start thinking of a heatsink of sorts for when the sun goes down.
