Sooooooooooooo Andy, your brug Yed so short when you were only feedling it a high phosphorous fertilizer? How long ago did you germinate the seeds? Which cross is it?

Brugs tend to drop their buds if the light suddenly decreases. So you may lose it if it is still on the smaller side when you move it inside. But the good news is it will bloom real early for you next spring.

I love your combo planting at the bottom.

Sherri, we all wait for our Ys because that means the plant is now capable of blooming, it blooms only Y wood.

Here is Andy's Y. The first buds often are in the crotch of this first Y. And then each side of the Y (marked 1 and 2) will Y itself and then as it grows each new Y forms a Y on each side all the way up and it keep setting buds. So it Ys on Ys on Ys...... like a pyramid of Ys.
