Can you share your growing conditions and how you are caring for it...water, fertilizer light and so on?

I didn't use a fertilizer, just nestled the roots on a layer of fresh worm castings when I "up-potted". I have the normal spectrum fluorescent lighting on short daylenth setting to stimulate flowering in Ipomoea nil and Ipomoea purpurea. That may have worked on this sage, too.

I transferred it to a large pot and it seems to be growing in a more robust manner. I hope to see more flowers by the weekend.
