Temporary container goji plants

11 years ago

I received two bareroot goji plants around the first of the year and decided to put each of them in its own 1 gallon container and place them under a grow light until I move them into a raised bed around April 15. I am in N. VA so I want to avoid freezes. These goji have grown about 8 inches in 3 weeks? They are about to touch the grow light. Any advice?

8 inches in 3 weeks sounds great...raise the light and keep up the good work!

When they get to about 16 inches cut the tip to encourage side shooting.
