Under lights?

I have some African Violets in my green house. They were doing great. I then had to turn on the grow lights for another project, and now they do not seem to be doing very well. Do African Violets need a period of darkness?

Hey Imagesoart,

Welcome!!! Yes, they do need a period of darkness.

They need rest, like people...I think 12 hrs light is recommended but some people give a little more or less. Heat/cold can also effect them. Greenhouse!...lucky you!

Thanks,

That's it then! They started going down hill, right about the time I was keeping the lights on all night!

Thanks!

Give them time and they will recover...as long as the crown growth is good, the violets will grow back out.
