We planted both into Canna Terra Pro with some extra vermiculite added, pre-warmed to 17C (64F). The rootballs were dusted with Azos and Great White myco, and everything was watered in with Canna Rhizotonic, humic acid, yukka extract (surfactant) and pH adjusted to 7.0 with EC 1.1.

Last night the temp went down to 8C (36F) and during the day gets into the mid 20s (80F) which I'm happy with though I wouldn't want it to get too much colder than that at night.

At the other end of the allotment we also planted some plants from our own 333 which we grew last year, our first attempt at growing the Atlantic Giant, and with way less knowledge than we have now! Ironically the 333 plants look to more vigorous than the Paton plants, but it's a long summer, let's see what happens.
