I think the problem with sdc is that most people take them in and out of the house for summer. I think the big problem is one of unsteady temps. I'm testing this theory out at church where I've taken a mini sdc to grow out as a houseplant. Mine that I always take in and out seems to choke up right after it's exposed to lower fall temps. I think if you could keep them at 60 or so all year, you would have better luck.
