Nem,
those distorted growing points have discoloration on them that suggests there is something going on besides possible chimaera tissue distortion. Too many consistently warm nights followed by 80F+ days in an enclosed space will cause that kind of growth distortion on aristolochioides and its hybrids. Have you investigated for Thrips/mites? That too could be responsible. It's possible you have more than one problem occurring here.
How long has the plant with the distorted growing point been in your care? How old is the plant itself? Do you fertilize? If so, frequency, type of feed, and amount would be helpful.
Definitely check for thrips. If you can't find thrips, the cause is going to be my preliminary guess.
I check for mites every night, but never find any pests. Also, my chamber always sits at 82 in the day time.
That may be the issue, and im trying to build a mini swamp cooler to drop temps more at night. However,
Wouldnt it do that on ALL growth points it it was too hot and not just a few?
Ive had the plant about a year and a half now. Itself, is probably about 2 years old. The distortion and growth splitting occured about 6 months ago out of the blue. No fertilizations.
And in this photo, your tallest plant in the bottom right is showing a need for K on the lowest leaves.
Do yourself a favor and get rid of the sedges now, while there's still time!
now, while there's still time!
Ditto. They may seem innocuous now, but if any should seed, you'll have them forever.
Curious as to where on earth you managed to find seeds (or seedlings) of B. hechtioides. The species altogether doesn't seem at all common in cultivation. Congrats on the success by the way.
