Would 2 inches per day of growth seem good in hard water?

The aqautic environment in streams, ponds, pools etc is much different than
the only source of water, rain, in trees.
Aquatic plants there go after wherever there is N, critters with CP's,
water column, diffusion from the soil below etc.
Transpirational pull also plays a much different role in emergent plants.
