Post #6183206

Greetings, all --

All the gorgeous images and animated discussions on this forum have completely motivated me and I’ve been ordering coleus!

I’ve ordered from the Rosy Dawn Coop but that wasn’t enough -- I read on one of the threads about NCFarms and now I’ve ordered from them as well.

Here’s my question: I have lots of unrooted coleus cuttings coming in a few weeks -- in what size container should I root them?

I was considering 2.5 x 2.5 x 3.75 pots -- will that be big enough? Or, since I do have some space constraints, could I get away with cell packs? Maybe the 72 (seems small) or 36 cell per 1020 tray size?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Liane
