Disease
Dreams Burgundy Picotee isn't prone to disease, but you may see rhizoctonia, botrytis or root rot while the days are short. Fungal infections are typically associated with wet, humid conditions. Prevent disease by following a few simple guidelines.
1. Maintain clean conditions in your greenhouse.
2. Water at the base of each plant in the morning and allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
3. Provide good airflow in your greenhouse and space plants so the sun can penetrate to the soil level of each container.
Treat botrytis with Medallion and Banrot as a drench according to the label instructions. Treat Pythium root rot by closely monitoring EC and pH levels and maintaining the proper range. You can also use a rotation of the following products with one drench every 21-28 days: Subdue Maxx® 1–2 fl oz per 100 gallons, 3 Truban® 4–10 fl oz per 100 gallons, 21 Segway® 1.5–3 fl oz per 100 gallons, 11+7 Mural 2–3 oz per 100 gallons.
Planting Dreams Burgundy Picotee Liners
We recommend planting one rooted liner per 4-inch container or three per 10-inch container. Use well-drained soil and completely bury the ellepot(s) in the center or evenly spaced in the container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
