ingrown bud
I have a milt going on its first bloom since purchase, unfortunately
by the time I noticed it was trying to bloom, the stalk had aparantly become stuck within the leaf it was exiting. The stalk zig-zagged and turned back on itself as a result. The first flower was allready about to open (2-3days off)at this point! Having had disastrous results handling small spikes on other plants in the past, I was reluctant to fool around with this one. In desperation, I trimmed off the leaf it was stuck in, just below the lowest bud on the spike. Was this the correct action? Is there anything else I could have done? When I purchased this plant, it only had one flower on it. This year, it has two. I can only assume the growing conditions are correct, and only 1 or 2 flowers are normal for this plant? Thanks for your help, any tips would be much apreciated. Gary Email does not work, old dead account (to avoid spam) |
