Use a well-drained soil with a pH of 5.8-7.0, EC of 1.0-2.0, temperatures of 65-72 daytime and 62 nighttime, and light feed (100-150 ppm N). Maintain light intensity at 1,500-3,000 fc for best foliage color. This plant doesn't require pinching or PGRs. You may see aphids, mealybugs, and whiteflies, and this plant can be prone to botrytis and root rot.

Disease
Glennis can be prone to botrytis and root rot during short days or wet, humid conditions. Prevent these fungal infections by watering at the base of each plant in the morning, providing good airflow in your greenhouse, and keeping containers spaced to allow sunlight 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.

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.

Before we take this relationship any further...
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.
