When My Brugs bloom I'm going to try to get a pic of Charley with a brug bloom in his forelock. I cut his mane. Couldn't make me cut the forelock it is so pretty and he couldn't care less.

Here is a mojito and cookie for my big beautiful boy! Hugs Charley! You too Charleen.

Charley is so special, he makes great Charley tea leaves ..

Seray sent me some brug sticks and some giner roots.. the gingr roots are all tipping up and the brug sticks are now nice plants. I can't wait for her to see!
here is one of them, it is named Seray LOL

Beautiful. They perk up now with the Charley Tea.

How soon should brugs start blooming from cuttings?

Anytime after the make the Y shape in the top. They will start forming buds soon after the Y. Then it takes forever to get from tiny bud till open buds.

ok how long before they "y' usually? i have a friend with some that has had them for mb a year now and no Y

Ooowww, not sure there partner. Mine always make the y long before the growing season is up. I have blooms every year. Maybe someone from the brug professionals place will know. I'm sorry. I'm no authority but mine never took more than a couple months to put on blooms.

thats what I was thinking. Youre not supposed to pinch their tops are you?

Best to get them from the Y. Only bad thing there is you may have some really short plants. Don't pinch them, that won't help, I did that last year and still didn't get blooms. they will bloom, I hate to say it but you got to be PATIENT. I sure am not!!!!!! But you learn to be.

Well my Isabella came from Joeswife and is doing great. But not sure Why my friends arent doing anything. I will tell her to keep waiting. Could it be from not enough food?

NO I wouldn't pinch the tops out because that is what the Y comes off of, and you prolong it forming if you do that. When you get a cutting in the fall , take it from above the Y so it will bloom early the next year.

They need a good plant food and lots of sun.

I dont think she is feeding it anything extra than whats in the soil already.

Miracle grow is good Misti, they need lots of food and water.

ok I will let her know.

Yup with Charleen. Use a good plant food and I use miracle grow on mine.Bloom booster.
I also use the soil that feeds for 9 months but I add plant food in the water to give it a boost.
