Silly Question...

13 years ago

Should I fertilize my brug cuttings that I have in miracle grow potting mix, kept on the dry side, in the house??...They're by an east facing window and the leaves are curling...Nope, no bugs...I only keep a few little leaves on them...I've been watering them just a bit from the bottom.

Thanks guys :)

NO!!! Just let them do their thing ..Keep them barley moist and have a chance to develop a good root system.. Watering from the bottom is a really good thing.. IMHO

I might not fertilize but I would give them Superthrive or some other micronutrient. As a rule I don't fertilize over the winter because I don't want excessive growth but I do add ST when I water. You might try a diluted feed to see if it has an effect on the curled foliage.
