Patty in Wisc · 03-19-2010, 07:58 PM

Enigma, my IC did same thing. When I brought it inside for winter (same 65 gal pot), it had 3 pups that were growing like crazy & mama wasn't growing so I cut off 2 pups & potted them separate (around beginning Jan). I figured the pups were taking too much energy. Mama has since put out 2 leaves .. small, but they are there. I don't want to cut it either cuz I'm hoping for a flower this year.
How many pups does each have? Maybe they are taking too much energy from mama? Just my 2 cents. Anyone else have an opinion ?
