flower stalk plantlets

[Plant Planter]

If your plant has traits you like you will get an identical plantlet from the flower stalk that will grow faster than seedgrown(so i am told) but seedgrown variation may be prefered

Thing is, it doesn't HAVE any traits out of the ordinary, other than the infamous Curved-Leaf Syndrome, and it's recovering from that too. So, really, I don't think there's anything noteworthy about my plant.

EDIT: Today I picked up some NOTEWORTHY FLYTRAPS! I might do the flower-stalk-plant-process with my new plants, particularly my now flowering "Dentate Traps".

I'm loving that color. What type of VFT are they?

 

[Not a Number]

Collect the seeds then clip the stalk and get plantlets from the cuttings. That's what I try to do - just no seeds so far.

akai ryu or red dragon same thing ,these little guys show more colour than their parents

Does this process still work if you chop the stalk into sections? That's what I did for my plant's stalk.

Well grown plants its always like that, each time i sow some seeds, 2-3 seedlings are stronger. Its genetic anyway, good job!

 

[Maiden]

What is your watering method ?

 

[corky]

i water using the tray method about 10mm deep,but the tray dries sometimes completely for a day or two

it cannot be genetic these are cuttings,so i thought they should grow at a similar rate,so i dunno,am sure they will catch up,they are about 15 months old (when i took the stalks)and were forced through winter,you could do better from seed maiden

 

[Maiden]

Yep, i work on this

Nice plants anyway heheh

Edit: i just received my cps order, i feet GREAT lol

Thanks ! I hope, im still Learning This morning i lost a akai ryu because of roots rot, so...


Here a part of my setup. I have 4 tables like this. All indoor growing. I have many t5s with reflectors, and the plants get 3 hours of direct sunlight from the big window next to the tables.
