I was just wondering if there was a "good" time to do leaf pullings on vfts? or is anytime a good time? Im thinking right after dormancy, beginning of the new season. im not sure if i should try now, now its about a month and half until dormancy..

id try after dormancy but not right after you need to give it time to re grow some leaves.if you do take some pullings make sure you take of some rhizome with the leaf(its the rhizome that makes it grow).also make sure your plant doesnt look sickly when you take a pulling you need a good healthy plant to take them from.any other questions just as me :D

Yeah one more lol if I decide to do it now, should I let it go through dormancy? Or just grow it through winter? For some reason I'm thinking let it go through dormancy...
