What is the average time it takes an inflo to rebloom after the first set of flowers drop? About a week after mine dropped the flowers it also dropped the pedicels. Is this normal?

@Jcdoc107 it is likely that it is first bloom from a cutting and the drop of temperature signals that it is time for it to go dormant. If there is now new branches, then you will most likely see bloom next year. If there are new branches, sometimes it skips a year of blooming.

So will a single info continue to produce blooms throughout the season or does an info bloom once and fall off? If it continues to bloom, how many weeks is it typically between blooms? I have read to not cut them off when they go dormant because often times they will live and rebloom in the spring.

A single inflo can produce multiple blooms and can continue to bloom for a few weeks to a few months but once the inflo falls off it doesn't rebloom. I don't cut off the inflo (just in case it will produce a seedpod) I just let it fall off naturally. Once the inflo falls off, the tip may develop new inflo or the top eill develops new branches then it will spend its energy with growing the new branches. Sometimes one blooming tip can produce 3 new tips and the cycle continues.
