Jason, I can easily put myself in your shoes, how nice it is to finally having your dining room to yourself. We had a like experience here back in 2006, when we was making concrete floors all over the house and also had to fix up the wintergarden. There was plants everywhere. It was nice for a start, but boy was I happy to put them out in the wintergarden a short week later.

I think, that they will be delighted with a little sunlight. You are right about the day- and sunlight will make them bloom earlier. Pls. post a few pictures of 'Daydreams' when it bloom :) I only know it from pictures, but it looks beautiful and have had such good recommendations. btw. How is your winter in Texas? Are the frost periods about to be over? Back in time I grew a lot of different Datura varieties, which originated from Texas. I remember, that I was told, that these was frosted in their natural habitat, but emerged again every spring from the roots :)

Erick, how are your winterand how long are your growing season? I note that you are in zone 4b. Do you have those extra long days in the summer with intensified sunlight?
