HOW TO FERTILIZE LOTUS
For conventional fertilizer (tablets or loose prills) which releases quickly when water is added:
Wait until the lotus plant has several floating leaves or begins to put up aerial leaves before adding fertilizer.
Choose a good fertilizer such as Waterlily World Tablets, Pondtabbs or Landon's Aquatic Fertilizer and follow the instructions carefully. The amount of fertilizer to use is usually based on the size of the pot and the amount of soil in the pot. For example, most of the small tablets are added at a ratio of 1-2 tablets per gallon of soil in the pot. Once the lotus has started to grow vigorously tablets can be added every 2-3 weeks. Stop fertilizing in late summer to allow the lotus to use up all the fertilizer in the pot before going dormant. This encourages the lotus to form better rhizomes.
For SLOW-RELEASE FERTILIZER like Nutricote 14-4-14, 100 day fertilizer:
*follow amount directions on package. Place fertilizer around the bottom of the pot then add soil. Plant rhizome in the soil at the top of soil layer and let it grow down to find fertilizer. We use slow-release fertilizer but begin adding extra Pondtabbs after 3 months when growth gets vigorous and we continue adding extra fertilizer until late summer.
Do NOT use 360 day fertilizer because it will release fertilizer for too long and the lotus will not form as many rhizomes when it goes dormant.

not recommended
Color: Nordic Blue/Space Grey, Style: Miele Guard L1
I would not recommend this vacuum. The hose does not swivel at the base so its in a knot.The handle does not have the power switch, not convenient.When you pull the power cord out the whole vacuum moves.For the price it feels cheap.

A Game Changer for Pet Hair Cleanup!
Color: Black, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2, Color: Black, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2
This robot vacuum and mop combo has been fabulous. We have a golden retriever that constantly keeps us on our toes with shedding and cleaning, but this has definitely helped cut down the time spent cleaning every day. The suction power is impressive, it does a great job on pet hair, and the mop feature is a huge bonus. I also love the self-emptying dock and app control — it makes everything so convenient. Definitely worth it for pet owners!

Pretty solid upgrade from my old robot vacuum
Color: White, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2
I bought this robot vacuum to replace an older one I had, and after using it for about a month, I’d say it’s been working pretty well overall. When I first got it, one thing I noticed was that it’s a bit on the larger side, so it does take up some space. Setup was pretty simple though, and once it got going, it just kind of did its thing without me having to babysit it. The suction is definitely strong enough for everyday dust and pet hair. I’ve used it on both hard floors and carpet, and it handled both without any issues. The mopping feature is new to me since my old robot didn’t have it. I’d say the results are about what I expected, it’s great for maintaining daily cleanliness, but for tougher stains it’s still not quite the same as scrubbing by hand. For regular upkeep though, it does the job just fine. The corner cleaning has actually been a nice surprise. It will go under furniture and use the side brush to get dust out of corners, which used to be something I had to do myself. Now I barely have to think about it.
So far, both my family and I are pretty happy with it. We haven’t run into any major issues. It does a good job avoiding objects around the house, although there were a couple of times where its path looked a bit random to me. Still, most of the time it’s quietly doing its job and saving us a lot of time on cleaning.

Powerful and convenient
Color: Black, Size: L40 Ultra Gen 2
Really happy with this robot vacuum so far. The suction is strong and it picks up dust and pet hair easily. Mapping is accurate, and it cleans efficiently without missing spots.
The self-emptying dock is super convenient and saves a lot of time. Mopping works well for light cleaning too.Overall, a great upgrade and definitely worth it.
