Ben Ellison Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Today I did something I have never done before. After talking to my LFS I decided it was time to experiment with harvesting some of my baby swords on the runners. I had previously Ordered rockwool and baskets. I then took my lids off for easy access to the runners. I selected the runner with the largest growths on it. I then snipped the runners and took the plant lings and placed them in the rockwool and then into the baskets. I have now taken the finished product to the LFS and left 10 of them with them. We are gonna see how well they sell before I collect more. I was able to get 20 viable plants off this runner and took the 10 best to the shop. The rest are now in a separate tank waiting to see if they take off. I would be interested in hearing any feedback on this if anyone has a better way to go about this. I spent 20 dollars on 55 rockwool and basket setups. Do you all think this is a nice touch or not worth the money? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penny Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 That's a really nice size plant to have so many off one runner. How many runners has the main plant got? Good luck!😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
