My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Question about milkweed seedlings

8 years ago

I've got tropical and perennial milkweed seedlings. Should I pinch them back to get bushier plants? The tropical ones I've grown in the past seem to have one main stem with not much if anything in the way of branching stems and I don't really like that look. Will they bush out if I pinch them when they're small or will that mess up the way they're supposed to grow? Thanks,

Deanna
