FLFishChik Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 So, I got this Java Fern from a Big Box PS on July 10. I didn’t start dosing Easy Green until July 16 but I’ve noticed this growing from a couple leaves recently. Will it eventually stop trying to reproduce now that it’s getting regular fertilizer? Should I remove the “planlets” or leave them? Am I doing something wrong? The Anubias, PSO, Water Sprite and Argentine Sword seem to be doing just fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Lovely! Looks like your J. fern is sprouting little ones. I like to remove them, and place in various tanks in my basement. I _think_ the excess amount of nitrate may be partly the cause. Here's a video of me mumbling through a J. fern plantlet extraction...
