Great Guide!

I just had some VERY EXCITING changes in my plant; I believe are due to the 'Special Nutrients' I have given my plat... Will someone else please try and see if they also have the great results I obtained?

I just got my plat last Saturday, The condition was as follows:

Health: Good
Growth: None
Water: Normal
Nutrients: Normal

I forced approx 15 updates over the weekend by avoiding my house for about 45 minutes then entering long enough for the house to load... Sure enough, about 5 minutes later I could see a status changes indicating an update.

I tried several combinations and when the results where positive I let the plant remain unchanged for an extra update cycle. I used High quality water and high quality fungi. For my plant, I found best results, without trying dangerous extremes was for:

Water: Below Norma
Nutrients: Above Normal

Come Monday morning my plant was as follows:

Health: Very Good
Growth: Very Slow
Water: Below Normal
Nutrients : Above Normal

Now for what I think may be a breakthrough' in Aurilian Plant care....

While laying in bed Sunday night I pondered on what I might try to get better/quicker results from my plant. I first asked myself: 'What do I know about this plant other than what is in this guide?' My Answer: Not much.... However I presume it is native to Dathomir. I also though about the different types of nutrients in the game and it dawned on me, one of the rarest nutrients in SWG is also one of the most favored plant nutrients in real life: Fish.

So I decided to try using Dathomir Fish as a nutrient source for my plant... Off to Dathomir with a fishing pole I went... Prior to adding the fish, my plant had been stable for 4 updates with the same stats as stated above for Monday morning.

Maintaining the same nutrient/water levels here are the results for the next couple of days:

Monday
-----------------------
Health: Vibrent and Colorful
Growth: Above Normal
Water: Below Normal
Nutrients : Above Normal


Tuesday
-----------------------
Tuesday A.M. Nutrients dropped down to 'Normal'... I ran out of Fish so I fed the plant Fungi... After 2 updates the plant's health dropped down to 'Very Good'. I imeadiatly ran off to dathomir and caught some more fish, returned and removed Nutrients 2 times (the amount of Fungi I added earler) then replaced it with Fish. By late night, after several updates the plant progessed as follows:

Health: Full of Life
Growth: Normal - NOTE: I tried feeding my plant fungi again and it dropped - so I rushed off to Dath and caught more fish.
Water: Below Normal
Nutrients : Above Normal


Wednesday
-----------------------
Health: *** Perfect Condition ***
Growth: Above Normal
Water: Below Normal
Nutrients : Above Normal

Has anyone else tried feeding their plant fish from a planet other than Dathomir, has anyone tried feeding their plant fish from Dathomir? If not... Please do and share your results... I am most interested in finding out if my perception is truly accurate and I should continue spending several hours a week fishing on Dathomir, or I have a diluted sense of reality*Wink*
Thanks,
