General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
For best results with Scopia Gulliver Compact Purple, plant one rooted plug per 4-inch container or 3-4 per 10-inch container. Use a well-drained soilless media with a pH of 5.8-6.2, EC of .90-1.2, temperatures of 65-68, and light feed (100-150 ppm N). Provide 4,000-8,000 fc of light and use several sprays of B-Nine in low light or warm conditions. Pinching is optional for 4-inch containers, but 10-inch containers benefit from one pinch ten days after transplanting. You may see aphids, spider mites, whiteflies, and thrips. Botrytis, mildew, and root rot can be problematic in wet, humid conditions.
Flowering
Purple flowers bloom from spring through summer.
Pinching
Pinch 4-inch containers if desired. Pinch 10-inch containers ten days after transplanting.
Spacing
Space containers for adequate airflow around the base of each plant and to allow sunlight to penetrate to the soil level.
Height Control
This plant doesn't typically require PGRs. In low-light or warm conditions, several sprays of B-Nine at 1,500-2,500 ppm will help prevent stretching.
Pests
You may see aphids, whiteflies, spider mites, and thrips.
Disease
This plant isn't prone to disease, but botrytis, powdery mildew, and root rot can develop in overly wet conditions. Prevent infection by watering at the base of each plant in the morning, providing adequate airflow in your greenhouse, spacing plants to allow sunlight to penetrate to the soil level, and using a soilless growing media.
Planting Scopia Gulliver Compact Purple Liners
We recommend planting one rooted liner per 4-inch container or 3-4 per 10-inch basket. Use a well-drained soilless potting media and completely bury the ellepot centered 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.
