2 weeks in and so far so good. Using an areo garden 3 for grow light. Watering with distilled water. Gonna buy two more and try to plant them together in a bigger pot.![]() ![]() ![]() |

Looking good! Do you have plans to plant it outside ever? If so I wouldn't plant two together as you'll never get the roots separated to plant them out. One suggestion, when you dead head the spent blooms, cut the stem off down to a set of leaves. Leaving the stub end like that encourages disease and die back and slows regrowth. |

Thank you seilMI I will cut it down to the leaves. No plans on planting outside. |

I got one of those for Valentine's day and mine comes in at night but out during the day I think that today I will get it in a bigger pot. I had 2 Gigi's last year that really took off and got nice and full ![]() You can't plant your new favorite rose if you are still watering your least favorite |

If you can plant it in the ground it will get to be a very good sized rose bush. And most minis are very winter hardy so no problems there. Roses really do prefer to be outside. |

But not everyone has an "outside". Porkpal |
