Re: Transpalnting Poinsettias


Good Day, Tim --
Here is an excerpt that I saved.
It does work.
I put mine in the basement under fluorescent lights on a timer.

Come October, put it in complete darkness for 14 to 15 hours each night. But 
bring it back into the sunlight during the day.  After a month or so, the 
bracts will begin to color up. Continue the pattern of darkness and light 
until the middle of December, when the bracts should be fully colored. Then 
you can bring the poinsettia back into the light full-time.
