Thanks purple, I have been very busy with these plants and following your advise as well. I got 2 iPots set up just now to propagate 2 pieces of this lucky bamboo. So I have a few more questions. I like to double check everything so that I do it correct the first time hopefully.. I tent to forget a lot and I take notes a lot. I do appericate all of your time !!!! It's really helping me a lot and I just wanna get it right and surly not lose anything if I don't have to. I know it's gonna happen but it's my Least favorite part. So quick question.. one of my Persian shields has grown mold twice now. I just fixed his pot to get more air so that should help. Uh I'm pretty sure it wasn't draining fast enough so now I fixed the problem should I repot him in some good soil ? Will the mold harm it now?? I tried taking it out.
