jamestothemax Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 ok so my glosso lawn is growing well and spreading out nicely. some of the runners have got very long and i was wondering if its best to trim this line back towards the main plant to maybe promote runners in other directions or just let it go? some of the runners are heading towards the back and may get shadowed by the chain sword so thought maybe if i trim it the new shoots may head out in a more desireable direction. any other tips for trimming glosso to keep it looking good?

alanmin4304 Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 You could relocate the runner in the direction you would prefer it to grow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamestothemax Posted October 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 yeah i was just worried it wouldnt be as well rooter then as they are new shoots so dont have real long roots and since the roots are so fine its a bit harder to get it to stay down anyway. i may give it a go later though and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 It is not all that easy to grow so if you have it growing well it would be a piy to waste it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamestothemax Posted October 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 well its been pretty easy to grow in my tank so far. ill try get some pics tonight once it has calmed down from the water change. I tried redirecting a few of teh shoots and somebroke off so i replanted them in better locations so will jsut see what happens. I re planted some of teh shoots off my chain sword to so i can try and keep them seperated. I seem to be getting new shoots off both the glosso and the chain sword every day. pretty cool considering i started the glosso with a few leaves only a few weeks ago!

alanmin4304 Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 That looks pretty healthy and is propagating well. It is not easy to grow and likes your conditions. If it was me I would leave well alone and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
