I planted my dahlias on April 30th this year which is TEN days earlier than normal. Today (August 13) I counted 55 plants that had not bloomed yet out of 220 plants. Another dozen or so had only one bloom. By the first of August, everything should be in full bloom WHAT IS GOING ON??? (I am pretty sure that doesn't mean that all the energy is going to go toward making tubers.) 90 degree days and 40 degree nights is not what dahlias want ..... and 90 one week followed by 60's the next week isn't good either.
