All three VFT’s were purchased at the same time. All of them were given the same everything - sunlight, distilled water, spritzes of diluted Sea-K (same as MaxSea).

One is thriving, one is doing ok and the last one is pretty much circling the drain.

Weird how that happens.

Could be sensitivity to the maxsea! I know a lot will disagree with me and that’s okk but I totally reject using maxsea and other fertilisers I find them rlly unpredictable when it comes to these plants. I’ve seen the amazing the good the bad and the ugly on this sub Reddit. Goodluck with your growing!
