Hi,
I am wondering if someone can explain what exactly a pot tuber is for
me? Is this a cutting that has just been left in a small pot longer
and not transplanted to the garden? I have seen several places offer
cuttings for sale but some also offer pot tubers. Thanks in advance
Nicki :)

Hi Nicki,
You are correct in assuming that a pot tuber is a cutting not used in this =
years garden, but carried over in its pot until the next season. Pot tubers=
are great for taking cuttings.
I take several cuttings of each variety that I need plants of in my garden.=
Any "left overs" I save for trade stock or pot tubers. I always save pot t=
ubers for varieties that are hard to keep tubers.

I'm still really confused.
Is a tuber put in a pot, allowed to sprout, cuttings taken and put in the g=
arden, and the remaining tuber in a pot is the pot tuber? Is that then plan=
ted pot-and-all in the ground? Dug and and stored pot-and-all for the winte=
r? Then cuttings taken from that the following spring? Or is a tuber allowe=
d to sprout, cuttings taken and most put in the garden but one put in a pot=
to become the pot tuber? Wouldn't you need a huge pot to accomodate the bi=
gger dahlia plants and resuting tubers? What do you do in the fall? I think=
I need a step by step explanation and instructions!

Cutting taken and spends it's life in a pot. 4" pots are bit enough becaus=
e you want all tubers in a small area & you can grow a full size plant in t=
his size pot. In the fall you dig the pot out of the ground, let all of t=
he moisture dry out of the pot and place it laying on it's side in cold sto=
rage until spring. In the spring this clump of roots are removed from the =
pot, partially replanted in growing medium with the top of the crown expose=
d and within a couple of weeks multiple sprouts will form and all can be ta=
ken for cuttings to use in the garden. Very good if you have limited space=
in storage. One pot root will yield many, many cuttings.

Hi,
I am wondering if someone can explain what exactly a pot tuber is for
me? Is this a cutting that has just been left in a small pot longer
and not transplanted to the garden? I have seen several places offer
cuttings for sale but some also offer pot tubers. Thanks in advance

Cutting taken and spends it's life in a pot. 4" pots are bit enough becaus=

Cutting taken and spends it's life in a pot. 4" pots are bit enough becaus=

ideas and tips
for a green thumb.

__,_._,___
I plant a display garden at our local grocery store. I plant only cuttings=
that are in 4" or 5" pots. The pot tubers produce beautiful plants that s=
ometimes outbloom the same varieties grown from tubers in my garden at home=
. I attribute it to them not working so hard to produce tubers. They may n=
ot grow quite as tall, but I see that as an advantage.
The soil at the display garden is terrible, so I make sure there is very g=
ood potting soil in the pot, along with a little Osmocote. I give them a l=
ittle Miracle Grow or something similar once or twice during the season. W=
hen I dig them up, the tubers have generally exploded the pots. I break of=
f anything that has grown through the bottom and put them someplace where t=
hey won't freeze during the winter. At this time of year I start taking th=
em out of the pots. I generally can get 4 or 5 good tubers off that pot tu=
ber. I recommend this method of planting to people who have to dig, but ha=
ve a lot of trouble doing it due to time or health problems, or to those th=
at have very bad soil or rocks to deal with.
When I locate my camera cord, I'll send some pictures I took of one of the =
pots I dug.

That will be my project for today (after it warms up a bit, 27 degrees F.!)=
.
I have pot tubers of both, grown in my garden and grown in my green house. =
I will photograph them in the pot and again after removed from the pot. Thi=
s will show everyone the difference.

I plant a display garden at our local grocery store. I plant only cuttings=
that are in 4" or 5" pots. The pot tubers produce beautiful plants that s=
ometimes outbloom the same varieties grown from tubers in my garden at home=
. I attribute it to them not working so hard to produce tubers. They may n=
ot grow quite as tall, but I see that as an advantage.
The soil at the display garden is terrible, so I make sure there is very g=
ood potting soil in the pot, along with a little Osmocote. I give them a l=
ittle Miracle Grow or something similar once or twice during the season. W=
hen I dig them up, the tubers have generally exploded the pots. I break of=
f anything that has grown through the bottom and put them someplace where t=
hey won't freeze during the winter. At this time of year I start taking th=
em out of the pots. I generally can get 4 or 5 good tubers off that pot tu=
ber. I recommend this method of planting to people who have to dig, but ha=
ve a lot of trouble doing it due to time or health problems, or to those th=
at have very bad soil or rocks to deal with.
When I locate my camera cord, I'll send some pictures I took of one of the =
pots I dug.

Subject: Re: [dahlias] Pot tuber question?
I just have a hard time picturing a plant that "normally" gets 5-6 feet tal=
l and produces many 9" tubers actually growing and surviving in a 4" pot an=
d producing viable tubers that somehow store BETTER than field grown ones. =
What kind of growth and flowering do you get off a dahlia in a 4" pot? I ca=
n't imagine something like Golden Years that grows mammoth stems and tubers=
for me surviving a summer in a 4" pot, but I'll try it!

Cutting taken and spends it's life in a pot. 4" pots are bit enough becaus=
e you want all tubers in a small area & you can grow a full size plant in t=
his size pot. In the fall you dig the pot out of the ground, let all of t=
he moisture dry out of the pot and place it laying on it's side in cold sto=
rage until spring. In the spring this clump of roots are removed from the =
pot, partially replanted in growing medium with the top of the crown expose=
d and within a couple of weeks multiple sprouts will form and all can be ta=
ken for cuttings to use in the garden. Very good if you have limited space=
in storage. One pot root will yield many, many cuttings.
