Growing Boom Boom White

Pinch when plants are well established to push lateral stems and more cutting-length flowers. Stake early with a sturdy support or corral netting, because the dense heads grow top-heavy in rain. Feed with a balanced fertilizer through buds, then switch to low nitrogen once color shows to keep petals crisp rather than soft. Disbud side buds for the longest, straightest stems suited to bridal work. Harvest when blooms are three-quarters open for best hold in the bucket.

Spacing: Space roughly 2–3 ft apart
Staking: Staking recommended once buds set
