Growing Lotus Time Lapse - Seed to Water Plant in 50 Days
Ойын-сауық
Time Lapse video over 50 days of growing a bonsai lotus variety from a seed to plant. Lotus seed was scored all over the its outer shell with a file before germinating in a water cup. It started spouting on day 3 and growing steadily. The plant was transferred to a larger container filled with rain water and mud from our backyard pond. This tipped the growing speed to another level, the lotus vines and its leaves' pads were thriving and appearing so fast. Afterward, I had to move the plant outside into a filled mud & rain water pot for its size.
This is a fun-growing plant project and super easy to grow at home. Will have an update once it has flowers.

I like how it grows before the roots even appear

Mustafa, Lotus needs strong sunlight to develop aerial leaves, so planting it outdoor or under a strong light will help. Yeah, it may take 1 year or so before seeing flowers.

Oh, I'm not sure why, but when I planted it indoor, it had no aerial leaves, however, after moving it to outside a month or so, it has been having some aerial leaves as you can see at the end of the video.

The stem started growing from the first day.On my third day My lotus stem grew half a meter long and on the 19th day a total of three leaves 4 stems several thin roots and a thick root looking like the long white stick found at the back of garlic going downwards I am very confused that what it is. Can anyone explain
Nice
What kind of light did you use? And no water changes literally just let it go? What did you use for a substrate? Looks like clay, and I'm assuming no fertilizer? Also how far away is the light from the top of the bowl? I'm sorry for all the questions.

Yes, no water changes but regularly added water, no fertilizer. I lighted up a LED grow light above it about a foot. The substrate was mud that I took out from a pond close by.

i need to know where you find sand paper and lotus seeds also large tanks because i'm thinking of putting fish inside also a filter and fish flakes.

Yes. The light was always on.
Its looking dancing lotus but i love it
The way the lily pads overlap on each other…
Wow ! Excellent video. Did you use lights, if so would standard led grow lights work, what about Temp of water\air I just read what you said strong lights so that's good as I've got hid and some very powerful LEDs but they're kind of expensive to run do you know the amount of hours suggested or maybe just growing outside in the right time of year bring them in the winter maybe I'm in Central Texas zone 8a \ 8b

Zone 8a/8b is prefect for growing lotus. No need to bring them inside in the winter. If you grow them indoors, 8-10 hours of light are enough.

Can you keep a lotus plant out of the sun?
This video is awesome. Was it easy to find the seeds?

Buy new seeds. Yours probably never sprout. Change water daily, the water can get dirty easily. Also look at review before buying, first batch of mine never sprout then i bought from another seller and they sprout
Is the moss okay?

Oh bruh…I see that your lotus grew quick with aerial leaves and all….mine has been growing for 2 years and it just has 1 coin size aerial leaves…. And 1-2 coin size to palm size water level leaves….it grows outdoor in a large laundry basin. What could be the problem? ;_;

Hi, Sounds like not enough sunlight or lack of nutrition. You could try to move it to a brighter spot (if possible) and add some aquarium plant food/fertilizer.
