Real easy one....my red temple is the only plant that's doing a really good job of growing right now and I wanted to know the best way to trim it so that I can replant the trimmings. I know I've read it around here somewhere....just can't find it again :%).

T'anks in advance .

^_^

find a good place to cut it and then plant the part that's still growing in the substrate.

Hi Babel,
Check out these sites:
http://www.aquabotanic.com/myfavorites.htm
http://www.tropica.com/default.asp

Snip the shoots, and plant them in groups of
three and wait for the results!

It seems that by snipping the shoots, the origional
plant becomes more bushy as it sprouts replacements.
If it is flourishing, it also indicates that there
is iron available for the plants. (Needs Fe to
survive and grow.)

PS. That is a horrible combination of colors and
with the non-bold font, difficult to read...
The background over powers the font.
