    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.
