A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Pluot Seeds

Hello ... I hope I am posting in the correct place. I started 2 pluot seeds in separate shot glass size containers. I germinated for about 7 weeks and just planted 2 weeks ago. They have grown like crazy the last week and are about 2 inches tall with a separate smaller plant in each container. They have been in a kitchen garden window but i think it is now too cold, the temps have dropped just in the last few days. What are my next steps to keep them warm and in good light through the winter? Do I need to replant in bigger containers and get a small growlight? The last couple days they are not looking quite as happy so I think they need something. I am in Northern Puget Sound area of WA.

Thank you, klf320

Welcome, klf. I really haven't a clue about your pluots. I grow in a completely different climate. I hope someone comes along soon with some answers for you. I just wanted to say hi and keep your question near the top for further interest.

Thank you Tina. I am not sure if I just need basic seedling info since I will be keeping them inside for the winter. I have never started anything from a seed, very amateur lol.

Well then. I know that plums and apricots are both deciduous plants and will lose their leaves for winter. And need much less watering during that time. I doubt that your greenhouse window is too cold. They can take some chilling and even light frosts during winters here in SoCal.
If they are still in shot glass size containers, then yes, transplanting them now into something a bit larger is in order. At least a 4 inch pot. Beyond that there is very little need for much until they have had their winter snooze. Then feed as leaf buds swell in early spring.
