Falstaf Fish Addict Posts: 785 Kudos: 1211 Votes: 196 Registered: 12-Feb-2004	Well there is not much inf on it, but that they should be planted in groups of 3 stems to make it look better, it can propagate from top cuttings as most stem plants. the lighting could be from medium to high. and temperature from 22 to 28 C Hope that helps

Falstaf Fish Addict Posts: 785 Kudos: 1211 Votes: 196 Registered: 12-Feb-2004	Don't worry it will start to grow and once it gets to the size you want it you can cut the top of the stems and replant them in new groups, healthy stem plants grow very fast

Falstaf Fish Addict Posts: 785 Kudos: 1211 Votes: 196 Registered: 12-Feb-2004	Hi, a photo will sure be cool. As for liquid ferts. i use Tropica's Master Grow, so far is the best that i ever tried, it has like ALL the nutrients plant need and you don't have to dose, specific nutrients like Iron or potasium. Yes you can cut the branch and replant it, just don't plant it to close to the mother plant ot it will shade it. [span class="edited"][Edited by Falstaf 2004-07-07 12:36][/span]
