They perk up quickly when moved into the shadier end of my greenhouse. The bare stems can be cut back to a node and will regrow. They seem to do best if allowed to just barely dry out before watering.Gaynellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05302330440466220405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-64177938674951987272011-11-14T08:58:31.959-06:002011-11-14T08:58:31.959-06:00Nice blog.

Also restricting the watering over the winter seems to keep them from putting out too much weak growth. <br /><br />I'm thinking about grabbing a few mosos from the greenhouse and bringing them inside, but the zipper is probably frozen shut until we get above 32F. I just want to see some shoots for enjoyment.Steve Lauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398643598426170132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-64259955984855801832011-01-11T09:00:53.083-06:002011-01-11T09:00:53.083-06:00Steve -- you have to be careful.

Gradual acclimation to the new conditions is best.<br /><br />But good point about bringing them outside -- they definitely do better out there, especially if you have smallish windows that don't let in enough light, and have dry indoor air.Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13393082652312828458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-24644521064986202792011-01-11T08:44:46.766-06:002011-01-11T08:44:46.766-06:00Gene -- I've suspected that, as the soil alway...Gene -- I've suspected that, as the soil always looks a little wet. I'll hold off until it's really dry and see what happens.<br /><br />Makes sense I guess -- the new soil after repotting didn't have roots in it, so stayed wet longer.

Since this started happening after the up potting, pull it out of the pot and check for root rot.Genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11574606570983238427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-26109037548140835142011-01-10T21:51:51.525-06:002011-01-10T21:51:51.525-06:00I've found that a lot of houseplants have trou...I've found that a lot of houseplants have trouble growing indoors permanently so I'll bring mine outdoors whenever it is warm enough. I currently have a rubber tree, money tree, pothos, angel wing begonia, epiphyllums, dragonfruit cactus, and a few more, but they typically don't grow much while they are indoors usually from November until March.Steve Lauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398643598426170132noreply@blogger.com
