| So... I have been overwintering a couple Dahlias inside, some may know I cut them down and treated the soil / tubers to deal with a case of Powdery mildew, (Although aparently skim milk may have been a less drastic measure!) They have been growing on and doing well for several weeks now, no sign of white powder, so... I was thinking about taking some cuttings and seeing if I can propogate some more that way...
What is the best way to do this?? |

| Good information is at the link below. Plantlady and crdahlia can offer up more firsthand info, among others. Do a google search of dahlia cuttings for many more links available. |

| Thanks; I forgot about that site. It has been a week since I planted up many of my sister tubers to these plants, they are starting to sprout! I am so excited! I am going to have to grow them on indoors for about another 4 months, no easy task, however they where so small last year I was sure I could not keep them viable for too much longer in storage... So... i may end up just using the sprout method with many of the extra sprouts.... I want to have a huge greenhouse next year, but alas, I only have a south facing picture window this year!! |
