Just a general question for everyone here and for Alicia on the grape watermelon, is there a way to make the chalice grow new eyes faster? I have a piece of the grape watermelon that's about 2" and it only has 3 eyes. The same holds true for several others, including the Red WM, Mummy Eye, Rasta, the list goes on. My Key Lime and SPStoner WM have crazy number of eyes though.

Kenny, I have played around with shading and have found out that when some chalices are out in the open, they do not show all of their eyes. I moved them into the shade and a couple days later more eyes appear. I have talked about this before. Certain chalices do not like direct light and this causes them to "squint", thus we do not see the eyes all the time. The OG ME is the greatest example of this. I had 6 eyes two weeks ago in the light, now I have close to 25 when it is partially shaded. I know I had a lot more than 6 before I brought it into the light before my experiment HTH

Mark thanks for sharing the experience.
Now I remember it happen to one of my charlices too, but how about the flow? Did the flow play another important role too?

That pink chalice is my smaller piece of that chalice. I have another piece just like it, but is twice as big.



I am trying to get someone to trade me another nice coral but I haven't found anyone.


That's my dog

I had a piece of that peppermint stripped one, but it didnt do well. I think I had it under far too much light.

Same here. Got it from Reefer Madness a couple years ago. It seemed happy at first, but then ended up losing it after a few months.
