This plant is growing really fast, sending runner to near post even.



And these days I got 2 new spathes from it.



Coming soon; inside the kettle views...

Hi Xema,
Very nice culture as usual. Do you keep all your emersed Crypts in 100% humidity? Do you favor that over say 90% or 85%? What do you think are the pros and cons of 100% versus slightly lower?
Thanks,
aaron

Thanks for the comments guys.

On, humidity ratio, I need to say, I tested the low humidity way for several month with not problem with the plants. I started with this way for some fungal problems. The result went the fungus stayed and I got some bugs pest due to the half opened glasses.
The high humidity way, produces more sensitive and soft leaves but the totally closed glasses prevents bugs and other pests.
