Not often enough by far IMO. And rarely this well grown.

My two seedlings are struggling...not much growth at all. Lost one. What am I doing wrong Keith? They are in the greenhouse.

Well, yours looks really fantastic! Perhaps I should buy a more mature plant and try it that way.

Love them. I still have plants that I grew from your seed Amy. Your flowers look really good, mine are still in bud. I love the leaves too. I thought they were a but tender but still surviving.

"What am I doing wrong Keith? They are in the greenhouse."

They will dislike the relative humidity and lack of any appreciable airflow in the greenhouse. Keep them towards the dry side too.
