Thats the 10th. The rest are really small except 1 (original). The new one has not developed yet but looks like its about to, thats the one I was thinking was sheath. Plant I am guessing 3 years old maybe 4. I had it for 2 years got it 12/22.
It had one PB when I got it. Always had an odd black color to it, but it wasnt rot. It shortly through up a new shoot and that one died away from what looked like rot, but I think it was Ca deficiency, started using CaNo3. All new growths has not shown any symptom of Ca deficiency, Basically I use CaNo3 along with a few other chemicals now and I really think that is what saved this plant (the Ca anyways). I do supplement with epsomn salt but not the same time as doing Ca. Our water supply has only 60ppm TDS and thats the max that Ive seen it. Ca and Mg very low.
I think you may be right, I just repotted it this fall, it was in a 3 inch pot, now in 4 . Anyways being these leaves are getting much bigger is a good sign. Id rather see a plant thriving than just surviving even with blooms. Thanks for your input and Happy New Years all.
