Saspitite Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 (edited) ive had these guys in for a couple weeks now and i'm not sure what's happening with them. it seems as though their roots are growing upwards? although it could be something else, i'm not sure. i've been fertilizing weekly with easy green and have kept lighting consistent (i have been turning it off at night). note that none of the rhizomes are buried; they're glued to the rocks. could i get any advice on what to do? i didn't expect to end up in a situation like this and am mildly freaking out but i'm sure something can be done haha. much love to everyone!
