Red Italian Vals?

ming · 06-23-2004, 04:08 AM

Has anybody ever had an italian val turn ALL red? from tip of leave all the way to the bottom of the plant with every leaf red?
Since I started my DIY CO2 on my 29G, 3 plants started having all their leaves red, while all the other plants are still pure green. The strange part is, I started this forrest of italian vals with only 1 plant which multiplied into all of this. So how can one plant be red while other be green when they were all from the same plant once? Will post a pic tomorrow if I remember/have time

Interesting. All genetically the same, apparently under the same conditions and one plant turns red. Beats me!
