Did a search, and didn't find anything. I grow my pygmies inside under lights. They do fantastic, but do not get a dormancy, nor produce gemmae.
I'm wondering about putting them outside. Our summers are hot, and dry. Usually 90-100F, with very low humidity. It's a desert climate. So I think doing so would make them go dormant. Then in the fall, when they wake up I'd get some gemmae, and then put them inside under lights again and kept wet.
Would this work? Or should I just keep them inside..? I could just put a few out as to see how it goes, but thought I'd see if anyone else has experience.
