GROWING TIPS<br />

» 100-150 ppm fertilizer for optimal growth.<br />

» Requires moderate light intensity for optimal growth. Reduce light<br />

intensity when temperatures are high to prevent flower and leaf burning,<br />

as well as bud drop.<br />

» Apply Bonzi ® spray at 3-10 ppm once or twice to control growth.<br />

Higher rates may be necessary in southern production areas. Check<br />

manufacturer’s labels for approved rates and usage recommendations.<br />

» Moderate drying of media will enhance flowering and control stretch.<br />

Too much drying can cause leaf scorch under high light.<br />

» Leach periodically to keep salt levels in container low.<br />

Spring Outdoor Finish:<br />

Do not finish outside<br />

Notes:<br />

No pinching needed. Light levels are critical. Higher light levels during<br />

early season production will help reduce stretching. Lower light levels<br />

may be required later in the season to prevent leaf burn and bud drop.<br />

Scout regularly for thrips.<br />
