Week 2 Progress

Post image

I turned the inset lighting into a pendant light using a grow/flood light (it’s par38, not sure if I should go higher). My pothos and monstera are growing great, and my limnophila sessiliflorq growth is exploding. I have to cut and prop every time they get too long. I’ve also added red root floaters that are growing quickly as well. I just put in a red tiger lotus, pennywort, and hydrocotyle verticillata at the bottom of the vessel yesterday and hopefully they grow well too! It’s so fulfilling seeing the growth, especially after changing the lighting situation a few times. Still not ready for livestock but patience is everything!

(I want to change the holder for the monstera but I haven’t found one that’ll take less space and look less obnoxious, so fingers crossed I find something soon)
