What is 1/3 inches? All my rulers are in 1/16" segments or in mm. Lets try to stick to what rulers are printed in, not some off the wall measurement that has no meaning to anyone. 16/3=5.66 which is 5/16" is that what you mean by 1/3"?

What about pruning the plants...??

my plants have not flowered in the past 2 seasons..I planted them from seeds indoors 2 yrs ago and then moved them outside where they are in full sun...and doig well except no flowers????
