So my ambulia is getting tall! So i trimmed the top off one plant and planted it in the substrate! Did i do this right? Will it the top grow into another plant? And what will happen to the original plant i cut it from?
 
I grew Ambulia as a main part of my 29g for a year. It is a great plant. Not as messy as Cabomba and Myriophylium but with the fine leaf structure. With good light and some glut/co2 it grows fast. I did just as you do. Cut out the tops and replant. You can leave the bottom and it will put out side shoots that can be trimmed off into new stems or if you have enough, just pitch the bottoms. OS.
 
Alright, ill keep doing what im doing them :) hoping to get a lot! I love this plant!
 
How long should it take for the bottom to take side shoots? I cut of the top a few days ago and have left them floating to grow roots
