Teachers, Seasonal Color Greenhouse were the growers for your 288 plug
this year.
Many of you have commented on the healthy size and color of the plugs
and a few had concerns about the extended height of a few plugs
(Salvia, Impatiens, Basil)
I expressed your concerns to the growers and here are a few growing
tips directly from the grower:
"As far as the taller plug material, you are welcome to have your
teachers contact us directly with further questions. We are happy to
help! Our best advice is the plant the plug deeper, keeping the top
above the soil line. The plug can be pinched if necessary. We also
grow plants from these larger plugs and end up with a quicker full
plant."
