One more time! I am tired of this irregularity!
Would love to have some sturdier plants outside for fresh air--and then the nights
throw in a glitch.

My same Epi grew these ridiculously tall shoots all the time--like 4' tall--and I was
told it was "normal"....A couple times, I just cut them off. I still have one pot of the NBC Epi
slowly growing to resemble the mature plant that I rooted from pieces of this long shoot.
Seems it will--eventually, grow a plant.....but it is a long way from having the lush leaves it should.
I am guessing this is about 4 years old now..... G.

This is how this NBC Epi looks--after several years...pretty puny.
