About 1 year old. I’ve left it in pot and just watched it. The rest of the seeds were grown last year and didn’t survive the winter. I did overwinter and put frost cloth over them but clearly it didn’t work.
Maybe too big a pot. I water every so often and just have it fertilizer.
Annuals can be abused to have longer growing cycles, but they are still annuals.
Making them not be annuals isn’t healthy for them and are why you’re having issues. It’s an extremely advanced technique with a large failure rate, that can also stress the plant out too much making it useless next season.
How is abuse to let a plant live longer ? In their natural habitat they live longer. If anything it’s abuse to move them to other areas where they die of frost.
I wouldn’t think it’s an advanced technique. It’s just growing them all year rather than half year.
But thanks for commenting
