I only soaked mine for 12 hours (slightly warm water to start). They went from floating to not floating so I figured they’d soaked long enough. I think I’ll try again and soak them longer and maybe I’ll get lucky.

A blog described Tromboncino as “seriously Jack and the Beanstalk” big .... I laughed when I read it, but the two in cups are looking as if they’d like to start climbing if something was available. I’ll probably put them out in the garden next weekend.

I just moved half of my cucuzza from the greenhouse, into the house,and stuck them under the growlamp. Will let you know if they "wake uP".

Re: the Tromboncino, I took a picture of mine as they are climbing like crazy, especially considering they haven't been out on the cattle hoop for a week, IIRC. I took a picture to post, but it didn't come out that good. Will try again later when I have more time to take one.

Here’s an update on my cucuzza. I moved six plants to under the grow lamp yesterday. One of those plants has now poked just barely out of the soil. I think I planted these that are under the grow lamp near the end of March.

The other six I planted more recently are still in the greenhouse, but I will probably move them into the house under the grow lamp, too.

BTW, the grow lamp is on for 16 hours a day.
