'Diamond Frost' grows very well under poinsettia conditons. You can try growing it in the same pot or use a drop in at shipping. For fall/winter growing in a 4" use 1-2 plugs (84's) and allow 8-9 weeks. For a 6" use 3 plugs and 10 weeks. 'Diamond Frost' responds well to trimming, just make an ice cream cone out of it. They also respond to bonzi similarly to poinsettias, about 0.5 ppm drench will hold them just nicely. Those of you in the south may want to add another trim or reduce the grow time a bit. Watch for pythium under cool, wet conditions. And yes whiteflies can be friendly.
