My regimen is the same as for all the others: 125ppm nitrogen MSU mix in RO water. Now, having said this, I mist every 4 hours with pure water for 5 seconds. This obviously dilutes any fertilizer. Part of the regimen is the high humidity as well. The odorata have at least 5, maybe up to 10, spikes per shoot.
