Plant Care Guide
Germination: Scrape the dark seed coat slightly until a small white spot appears (scarification), then submerge in clean water.
Sunlight: Place in a location that receives at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight.
Potting: Use a heavy clay-based soil or pond soil at the bottom of your container; avoid standard light potting mixes that float.
Water Quality: Change the water regularly during the early stages of growth to prevent algae and mosquito larvae.
Fertilization: Once leaves reach the water surface, use specialized aquatic fertilizer tablets once every 3 weeks.
