Staurogyne repens

PlaceStaurogyne repensin theforegroundwith plant tweezers. Place each bunchlooselyIn a nutrient-rich substrate, with 2–3 cm of space between the plants to allow for full growth. Ensure that the crown (the center where the stems meet) remains just above the substrate to prevent rot.

• Light:low–medium; for compact growth prefer medium.
• CO2:not obligatory, but promotes compact growth and colour.
• Power supply:Rich substrate + liquid microbes; regular water changes for stability.
• Flow:light current helps distribute nutrients without pulling the clumps loose.

Because this plantsubmersOnce cultured, it will generally adapt quicker; start with a normal photoperiod (6–8 hours) and increase as needed to avoid algae stress.

Use a sharp pair of scissors andtopthe stems 1–3 cm above the ground, just above a leaf node.

The remaining base will grow again and branch out laterally, making the growth more compact. You can cut off the topsreplantas a cutting to fill empty spaces.

• Frequency:Maintain light every 2–4 weeks depending on growth rate.
• Technology:cut above a node; remove yellowed/injured leaves completely.
• Maintenance:remove loose plant material and change the water after major pruning.

Regular, targeted pruning will keep your foreground neat, healthy and beautifully continuous — exactly what Staurogyne repens excels at.
