I have a question. I have these four little brugs starting out and I have them out in my garage. They seem to be doing really well. The temps though get down in the 30's out there. The brugs seem to be doing o.k. I'm afraid if I bring them in now they'll go through shock and die. What do you all think ?
Question about temps
If it is not broken do not fix it! I would only move them if the temperature falls lower. I have noticed the ones I left outside on their own to survive or die, are doing much better than the ones I moved inside to baby. Though maybe they just do not like my housekeeping or lack there of!
Smokymist,I thought I saw a picture of them in your basement. If it gets below 32 for any length of time I think I would put them back in the basement.
I rooted culebra last winter that i never brought in the house, even when it was under freezing for 10-12 hours. i covered them with a flannel shirt. i agree with ms kell, if they are doing well leave them. i hate to bring mine in because they always drop leaves and then drop them when they go back out. i have a bunch of cuttings haven't been in all winter. i did make a baby greenhouse for some of them the other day, 2 saw horses, lumber across them, covered with plastic, lol...
i do have about 8 in the house now, will go back out after tomorrow nights frost.
I call my garage my basement lol because it's down in the bottom half of the house. I don't have an actual "basement" wish I did it'd be full of plants ! I think I'll leave them be, I just checked them and the temps are so cold my toes are freezing even in the house. They must like it, or are adjusted to it.
