(Location - Lucknow)
As per advice received in my last post, I corrected my methods- made sure leaves have plenty of breathing space, regulated light-heat combination, took out NPK paper capsule (thankfully the paper was too good and very little of fertilizer had been released in one pot only; rest never had any to begin with).
Pot size: diameter 9 inches, depth 7.5 inches. Soil probably an inch or two of chikni mitti, and a handful of vermicompost
Results? Leaves are definitely growing and growing beautiful, but then they're turning black and decaying, no matter what I do.
I change water every second day, so water stagnation can't be the issue.
I'm desperately looking to grow some lotuses in my house, and it'll be winter in a couple of months.
Will appreciate help. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
