Hello! Kindly requesting help with my Celadine! I'm a total newbie, so please forgive me if I misuse terms, or otherwise neglect to include pertinent information.
I live in New York City, and because of recent, inconsistent temperature fluctuations, have been trying to root a branched Celadine cutting indoors. Eventually, I hope the plumeria will live happily during the summer months on our second-floor terrace. The terrace has a northeastern exposure.
I acquired the cutting around the beginning of May, but wasn't able to attempt to root until June 1. The soil is well-draining, with perlite. The tip is buried about 3 inches into the potting medium, no rooting hormone was used. Moderate water was used to allow the soil to adhere to the bottom of the cutting, but in the last 21 days, I've neither watered nor fertilized. I do mist the plant morning and nights for humidity, and it's placed under a 450 lumen 2700K 6W LED bulb while the sun is up.
It has eight tips, three of which have produced abundant flowers. The first flowers were fuller and less "wilty," I'm guessing because the plant could better support fewer blooms. New leaves are emerging from each of the eight tips. The longest leaves are about 7 inches in length.
What next?
When is it safe to water?
When is it safe to fertilize?
Separately, I'll be traveling for two weeks beginning next week. How should I prepare the plant and what to do while I'm away so it's safe upon my return?
Thanks so much, and I greatly look forward to learning more from this community.
edited to fix typo.
