Thanks

Wow! I am amazed by the flowers...
How I wish my emersed plants will eventually flower! *Drools*...
Read me! :bigsmile: http://justikanz.blogspot.com/
I'm crypt collecting... Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted! ), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted! ), C.tonkinensis(Melted! ), C.walkeri, C.wendtii 'Brown', C.wendtii 'Green', C.wendtii 'Green Gecko', C.wendtii 'Tropica' and Cryptocoryne x willisii
Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...
May I ask why is that? If I light 10 hours daily will it still flower seasonally?Originally Posted by Xema
I'd like to know how you grow Anubias emersed too! Just like crypts?
I think it's because in Europe, the longer days of spring and summer (up to 15-16 hours of daylight per day) trigger of flowering? While the shorter autumn/winter days suppress it?
budak, I believe that could be the main reason. Echinodorus for example, requires long light period to flower properly.

The lights (3 x 24W T5HO) are on for 10 or more hours in my 2ft vivarium... Do you think it is enough for the plants (I have bacopa sp., a variety of crypts, pennywort and Echinodoras tenellus) to eventually flower?

I've grown Echinodorus sp. & bacopa monnieri emmersed with out extra moisture
under full sun....both flowered continuously.
great looking flower, Xema. That rotala rotundifolia 'green' flower looks a lot like my nesaea crassicaulis flower.
I am not sure if itīs due to long day or at high increasing of the temperatures or maybe only with the different of the long day to the short day or a mix of them. The fact is the plants get flowered on spring and autumm.Originally Posted by |squee|
I am not sure if the reason is the long days... or simply the changes to long day at short day and to short day at long day.Originally Posted by budak
I have in my emersed crypts tank, a lighting period of 14 hours.Originally Posted by Justikanz
Yeah, both are into Lythraceae family.Originally Posted by EDGE
