Default Re: When to uncover in central NC?

Bookworm,I have never had any luck when I cut my plants. Every time I have cut the stem I end up with mush. This winter I have some of my less hardy stuff in a dark shed, some with the dirt and pups knocked off,a few potted,and some with the way they came out of the ground. the outside plants are wrapped to the top of the stem in various ways.I think there is about ten or so different plants and so far all of the stems look great.I do not have any basjoos yet might try this year,The best stem i have right now is a ice cream it is outside wrapped with track lighting, plastic, and burlap this plant is nice and green to the top of the wrapping.I have only had trouble with one,Rowe banana" this one dies to the corm.
