double plant from seed

13 years ago

Hello

I started a seed last year and at first I thought a leaf was twisted but now it is clear that it is two plants. I took it out of the potting material to separate them but they are attached. Do I need to worry about this? or should I cut them apart? or wait until they are older?

Joe,
They'll grow better and probably faster if left together. As they get older, if they show no distress, I'd be tempted to leave them together, even in maturity. The two plants in bloom will give you an incredible show.

thanks Gail, that's a good idea.
