🌱 Growing Tips
💡 Lighting
– Requires high light intensity, especially with a strong red spectrum to enhance coloration.
– In low light, leaves turn more green and lose vibrancy.
🧪 Nutrients & Substrate
– Thrives with rich substrate feeding, especially nitrogen in ammonia form.
– Needs a balanced fertilizer regimen—deficiencies can quickly lead to stunted, dark leaf tips.
💨 CO₂ & Water Parameters
– Benefits from stable CO₂ injection, though it can survive in low-tech setups with cooler temperatures.
– Prefers slightly soft water, but this is not strictly necessary.
✂️ Maintenance
– Propagate by trimming tops and replanting.
– Bottom stems will sprout side shoots if healthy.
– Space stems adequately to prevent overcrowding and ensure light penetration.
—
⚠️ Challenges
– Not beginner-friendly due to its sensitivity to lighting, nutrients, and CO₂ fluctuations.
– Requires prompt attention to nutrient imbalances to avoid rapid decline.
