Some is confusing growth, but generally great growth now.
I picked up a sword in very bad shape on Boxing day, had to cut all but 5 leaves off it (name of plant is in my sig), it has since grown 6 new leaves, (that's 1 leaf every 1.5 days).. and this is a medium grower???
The Crinum has grown slowly, as it said it would.
The rotala is on the mend, I trimmed of most of the dead "sticks" once I saw some new life, it's now growing at a healthy speed, I imagine it will grow even faster when it has more leaves to absorb light (and now the dead stuff is removed.) This is so delicate a plant
Anubias nana and barterii have been shooting up new leaves regularly, as many as 4-5 per plant at a time, 2 are currently flowering.
The plant that was marked as Hygro Rose, I think I've heard it referred to as sunset has made a full recovery from the poor lighting it was introduced to (1.5WPG with 2 old powerglo's).
But something odd is happening with that one, it's growing horizontally?? the stock goes straight up to about 6" from the substrate, then takes a 90degree turn and starts growing across. Anyone know what can cause this? it's healthy and growing at a decent speed, just not growing "up"
