Re: [APD] Veronica Sword
Nutrient limitation, espeicailly CO2 will keep the "Kleiner Bar" smaller for a long time. Kasselmann, upon seeing a sample of the larger plant going around was convinced that it is not true Kleiner Bar (Little bear?).

Thank you kind sir for your info on the Veronica. I was at the point of
trying to coax the bloom stalk to the top but i can now relax and let it meander
!!!
It is heading toward a fairly open part of the front of the tank so it
should have room. and i can imagine easily the show It would really make with
several putting out stalks at once!
Perhaps i have been mistaken before and there were other causes for this but
i have had bloom stalks that did not reach the surface that failed to
produce pups. You are saying that this plants stalk will produce pups more like a
runner rather than actually having flowers then pups?
You also mentioned restricting nutrients to control growth. Is this also a
possibility with the Kleinar Bar and the fact that some people have been
disappointed in the large growth when in fact it is just a nutrient limitation
that keeps it small and our good ferts, high light CO2 enriched tank spur the
growth?
thanks again for your info on the plant. it is very attractive and i would
like to get some pups as i have never seen it offered for sale.
