Don't plant too deep since Bandera has low and deep branching, and Botrytis could more easily affect plants. Need cool production to reach sufficient flag size, see Scheduling tool. High pH (above 6.8) can cause leaf chlorosis. Avoid planting plugs deep. Keep plug surface same as medium surface. Grow with low RH and high light. Let top soil dry in between waterings, but do not allow medium to dry, as high EC could cause root damage. Monitor for Botrytis, Root Rot, Leafspot, Aphids and Mites. For shipping, keep soil moist and plant dry. Avoid planting plugs deep. Keep plug surface same as medium surface. Grow low RH and high light. Let top soil dry in between waterings, but do not allow medium to dry as high EC could cause root damage. Monitor for Botrytis, Root Rot, Leafspot, Aphids and Mites. For shipping, keep soil moist and plant dry. Scheduling is different between colours: Purple is the fastest (as indicated lead time) and Snow adds 4 to 5 weeks. See Scheduling Tool for regional lead times. For overwintering production, cut back just below top foliage; do this mid-Autumn, approximately 4 weeks before dormant period, or in Spring just before regrowth. Avoid planting plug too deep. Keep plug surface same as medium surface. Grow low RH and high light. Let top soil dry in between waterings, but do not allow medium to dry, as high EC could cause root damage. Monitor for Botrytis, Root Rot, Leafspot, Aphids and Mites. For shipping, keep soil moist and plant dry. Lavance is best for Summer production, has best bulk. Do not plant early season. Growth is delayed in cool conditions. Use Ellagance Purple for annual early Southeast season and Avignon Early Blue for annual early South and Northwest season. See Lavender Scheduling Tool at panamseed.com for finishing schedules by region. For overwintered production, cut back just below top foliage; do this mid-Autumn, approximately 4 weeks before dormant period, or in Spring just before regrowth. Grow relatively dry and provide active climate. Vigorous Lavandula needs more PGRs than L. angustifolia and L. stoechas, and is a long-flowering annual.
