Question about pot sizes .

I have this year gotten my hands on some Brugmansias (usually I grow Daturas) and one Brugmansia that actually grew from seed on my window.

What pot size do you recommend? I have some spare 8x8 inch pots, but I am fairly sure that it will be far to small. The alternative is like 16x18 inch.

My Daturas (Metel) usually grew well even in the small ones, since I fertilize them quite extreme and water 2x a day. My main point is that I don't have unlimited space on my terrace and can't affort the space for 3m tall Brugs. Do you think that they will flower in the small pots when given enough water and nutrients like a Bonsai (of whom I also have quite a few) or will they wither.

I appreciate all help since I have never grown any Brugs and kind of go by what my Daturas liked so their cousins Brugmansia should also like it?

Getting ready for planting out.

So we are going out for the season! Hard winter here and very slow spring. We had a light frost a few days ago and now the night time temps are up in the 50s. So we are planting out for the summer. Had a lot of for back this year. 3 in particular died back to the ground. Either a combination of cold or too dry. So here we go! Looking forward to flowering soon.

My brugmansias are having problems

Hello! I have two brugmansia plants. Last year they lost their leaves, (I think) due to overwatering combined with frequent rain and spider mites. This year the same thing is happening, but they are flowering. Is there a solution pls? I would love to see it bloom.

Overwintered in garage…still alive?

I overwintered my brugmansia in my garage this winter. I pulled it out a couple weeks ago to acclimate back outdoors. I’ve been watering daily and gave a dose of plant food. There is some green under the bark layer, but other areas are squishy and brown. Any advice? Is she a goner?

Brug Flower Update

Following up to a recent post asking about in-ground planting. Showing off the flowers to maybe get a better ID, person i obtained it from told me but I've since forgotten. Will keep in this pot til it gets gigantic then will transplant to hillside or front yard and put on irrigation so it can become the big beautiful brug it was destined to be.

Edit: forgot to add in it smells so fricken good

An article on my toé/brugmansia dieta

Hi everyone,

I wrote this article on my experience dieting the feared and misunderstood toé plant. I am an ayahuasca facilitator now, and have had roughly 75 ceremonies within ten months or so.

In the article I write about the dieta itself, sexual energy, our shadow self, and the process of rebirth.

I hope you enjoy! And, to be clear, nothing in this article was written by AI. It is all directly from me.

Unusual tiny spots with no insect activity

I’ve noticed tiny dry appearing yellow spots on established leaf growth that new leaves do not have. Is there anyone that knows the cause?

Can I leave mine outside year round in Texas

Will mine survive if left outside all year? I'm in the North Texas area. Are there maybe specific types that could survive it?
