Browning on leaves?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
IMG565.jpg a lot of aquatic plants reproduce by sending out a stem with plantlets (babies) attached. I've probably harvested 30 babies since I've owned this plant. sorry for the sucky pic. But there is a niced sized one in the 2nd pic of post #10. Had I not previously trimmed the runner from this plant, that stem (runner) would be about 3 ft. long with 7-10 plantlets on it.

Yeah You can. I like to let mine die all the way back when the Plant is fairly new. Ebay is a good place for root tabs.View attachment 797132

Here is my sword when I first put it in. it browned so much that I thought I would have to throw it away. over the course of about 4 Monthes I split the plant into 3 all are the size of this one. another month or so I will split them again and have 6 plants this size, about 24" from root to crown. Also leave any runners on as long as possible.View attachment 797135View attachment 797136

Roots tabs and flourish Carbon, the results from the tabs are definitely measurable. Not So sure about the Flourish as I've only been using it for a month and I meant to buy excel but would up with Carbon. No detriment to the sword So why not? My Moss Balls however, are a different story all have some browning on them, and 4 of 25 have started to split. So Im just gonna watch and see.
