Re: My Second Titanum is Blooming within 2 months at The Basement of my Restaurant Cafe Ma

Zeren, 
           Thanks! I've recently purchased a few :) Titanums and have them in my boiler room (the hottest part of my house) with a bucket of water for humidity. I was thinking of moving them out to another room come May. Put them on a heat mat and also they will be able to get some natural light there. My "guys" are only 1/2 inch thick at the base of the leaf structure (they have a ways to go) and came to me potted in a 4" square pot. I was thinking that they should be up potted since some have roots coming out the bottom. Can you repot them at this point? or should I wait? 
Thanks again, 
     Thom

I guess, If I suggest one important tip that would be> keep an electrical heater blowing onto pot of the tuber ( put also water pots for humidity) Or keep the pot around 85 F constantly.  Dont let the temperature of the of the pot fluctuates. my first tuber  bloomed was 51 lb .
take care
Zeren

YES!!! Congrats are in order!!!! And it would be very helpful to hear  
about how you grew and bloomed them in a basement (for those of us who  
are not fortunate enough to have a greenhouse)
