If necessary, plants will respond to sprays of B-Nine ® WSG (daminozide) at 2,500– 3,500 ppm, or a Sumagic ® spray at 3 ppm.
First Year Flowering No vernalization required. Although, Camelot ™ Digitalis can be transplanted in late summer–early fall for faster flowering in the following year
If vernalizing plugs be sure to increase plug size of moisture management

Grow plugs under short day conditions (<12 hours) to allow for bulking. Then provide long days to initiate flowering after approximately 7 true leaves are showing; Configure ® applied as a spray 1 to 2 times at 300–600 ppm has been shown to increase basal branching with little effect on plant height.
