Were they under protection/supplemental lighting? I set mine out in May and that seemed early...
Hi WV: Jetson,
no cover, planted well after frost. no supplemental lighting.
Started the seeds with 13.5 hrs of light,
Did have a problem, they started to flower before , pots to small , transplanted them into 3 gallon pots. Adjusted light to 14 hrs,
Until 4,18 planted by the lunar calendar 2 days before full moon, just they way I garden.
Basically they stretched some then went "reveg" .
Now they are shrubs a 6ft
The purpose of this exercise was to increase root ball size, get a stouter trunk.
Waiting to see what they do for flowers.
