Pinching and Growth Regulators:

For all sizes of containers, pinch the liner 1–2 weeks after transplant; for containers larger than 6” and for hanging baskets, trim around the edge of the container as needed prior to spacing or hanging of the baskets.

Florel at 500 ppm is effective at increasing branching. Florel can also be used to schedule flowering (flowers will appear 4 weeks after Florel application). Sumagic at 5 ppm is effective at controlling growth if needed. Cold temperatures will also control growth.

Pest and Disease Management:

General pest and disease practices as listed in notes.

Grower Tips:

Grower Tips for Other Nemesia
-Preventive fungicides are recommended at transplant.
-Florel at 500 ppm is effective at increasing branching.
-Sumagic at 5 ppm and cold temperatures are effective at controlling growth.
-Use a porous soil.
-Greenhouse air circulation and morning watering are critical in the winter months.
