    IT sure is! Thanks for that MF! Mine is doing very nicely, and quite a lot of red in the top bracts now. I have taken photos, but can't face the hassle at the moment of downloading to PC, uploading to Photobucket, resizing, etc, etc, etc! Maybe tomorrow..... :rolleyes:

    I didn't do all the feeding regime, but the positioning fits your guidelines, so that's a good start! :D

    :D Glad it helps dendy.. I know it is long winded but that is how I got the instructions so just did a copy & paste of it all, as you do need to read it to get an idea of what they are saying, even if you don't do it as they say...!! :D That is great that you have managed to get the red brachts.. Well done..!! Good luck with it all, as I said I did it successfully for a few years in the past but have forgotten the last couple.. Maybe try again as I was given rather a nice one this year.! Happy growing..!! :D

    Thanks for that MF. I've just cut-and-pasted the whole lot into Word for reference - going to have a go at keeping mine for next year too.
