Keep it up, it's looks good!
nice one Garuf ;) .
 
From reading the online Aqujournal, they may take some time to establish. Once they take root, they're pretty much fine. I did see this once in my tank, they weren't doing well at all. Then I went away on a business trip for 2 weeks, giving instructions to my wife to dose EI once a week. When I came back, the HM grew huge, about 20cm within 2 weeks! Trimmed it and it never grew back properly, wasn't sure why.

that is odd. Usually, when it's established you can pretty do what you like to it.

My latest nano has HM and HC...i have fingers crossed for both. especially with deadlines :?
 
I suspected that the lower parts of the stems weren't doing well because of the tops shading them. Think nuclear explosion mushroom cloud and it'll look pretty much like that bunch of stems back then. When the tops were trimmed, they lower parts struggled to regrow. Tops were replanted but they had to go through that establishing cycle again. Vicious cycle for me :lol:
