Experiment: Anubias Snow White Petite (update 1)
It has been 48 hours since I've started the anubias experiment. This is the positioning of each group, from left to right we have sugar water (group 3), high light (group 1) and med light (group 2) set ups respectively: In Group 1, 50% perlite and 50% soil mix is used. All three plants are looking healthy after 48 hours of high light. However, there's slight curl in the leaves of the middle plant, and that could be due to too much high light. I'm planning to reduce my photo period rom 24 hours to 20 hours In Group 2, similar soil mix is used as in group 1. The plant furthest away from the light source starts to melt, especially the white leaves. They became more translucent now and slowly melts away. I'm hoping that this initial die off will promote the growth of green leaves. Group 3 uses perlite only and is only watered with 0.1 mol sugar water (I've used coconut sugar which contains ~ 70% sucrose, 9% glucose, 9% fructose). The plants are starting to be brown
