Tech Tips: Techno Lobelias are relatively fast growers that have a semi-trailing habit and excellent heat tolerance. They fill containers quickly. Pinch the plant as needed for 6-inch and larger containers. Use proper disinfectant should be used on all trimming tools to prevent possible virus spread. Avoid overwatering on young plants. Long days will hasten and improve flowering, especially when produced in early spring. Techno Lobelia is best when grown cool with high light. Watch for thrips and thrips-vectored Tospoviruses (tomato spotted wilt and impatiens necrotic spot).

HB | 4 ppp | 10–11 weeks 2 gal. HB | 5 ppp | 10–11 weeks Tech Tips: Goldii Lysimachia is a trailing plant that has a medium growth habit and is grown for its attractive gold-colored foliage. Provide moderate to warm temperatures early on after transplant to get the plants established. Avoid over-saturated media and overly cool temperatures. Trimming plants is the best way to control growth.

An early pinch (either in propagation or shortly after transplant) will encourage branching. High light and warm temperatures will improve quality and help reduce crop times. Higher light intensities and longer photoperiods help reduce the natural vining of the plants.
