Re: [GSAS-Member] Anubias and Cabomba

["Clifford Miller" <clifford@clevergeek.com>]

If you cut off the roots, it will slow down the growth of the plant, but
anubias is pretty tough.  As long as the rhizome is healthy I doubt it
will hurt it too much.

I think my cabomba tops have always grown back well...it likes a lot of
light, and you might try some target fertilizing of the roots with some
pellet fertilizer if you're not seeing it bounce back.

While we're on the topics of these two plants, for anyone that's grown a
lot of anubias, will I get the best growth by letting the plant get large,
or should I be dividing it up so there are more ends to grow from?

For cabomba: who in the group did I get the bright red cabomba from?  I'd
like to buy some more if you have any extra.
