Bacopa Gulliver Dynamic White Rooted Cutting Liner

For best results with Bacopa, we recommend using a constant feed program of 200 ppm N. Maintain a pH between 5.8 - 6.2.  If the plants develop yellowing at the tips of the leaves, pH level is the first thing to check.

Bacopa flower year-round and load up with small blooms (available in white, blue, and pink).

Pinching is not necessary, but one pinch may be helpful. Allow 4 weeks after pinch for blooms to develop.

For hanging baskets, an average pot will need to be spaced at 2’ centers. Space pots as needed to allow air flow and penetration of light between plants.

Plant growth regulators are not necessary for Bacopa.

Whiteflies, and aphids are the biggest pest problems with Bacopa.

Gulliver Dynamic White are not prone to many diseases, but they can develop root rot if they get too wet. Also watch for botrytis while the days are short. This grey rot is usually associated with wet or humid conditions. You can prevent botrytis by allowing the plant to dry out between waterings, allowing for good airflow in your greenhouse, and spacing to allow the sun to penetrate to the soil level. The most common chemicals used to treat botrytis are Medallion and Banrot. Use them as a drench according to each label’s instructions.

1. We recommend planting 4-5 starter plants per 10 inch basket. Use a well-drained soil in your baskets and plant your starter plants deep, allowing the ellepot to be completely covered by the soil. If you are planting 4” pots, 1 plant per pot should be sufficient if you have enough time. Plant it directly in the middle of your pot.

2. Pinching is recommended 5-10 days after transplantation. A second pinch may be necessary depending on the size and shape of the final pot.
