Hello, I just trying growing lotus now. A king of interesting. I just transfer them from water to soil a few days ago. After there is a small leave was grow. I am using loam. Have a few questions here. 1). Is there any plaint food that you recommand that I have to add to the lotus now ? 2). At night should I put the lotus closer to my fish tank since there are light there to help them grow better ? 3). Where can I purchase more seeds ? ( in Canada, Calgary will be the best) Thanks !

For seedling care, are you able to access the propagation protocol for Nelumbo lutea on this site? (ref: Propagation Protocol for American Lotus Nelumbo Lutea Willd., Jeff Sayre, The Native Plants Journal 5.1 (2004) 14-17) If not, let me know and I'll paraphrase what was found.
