PLANTING GUIDE
Prior to planting, it's essential to scarify the American Lotus (Nelumbo Lutea) seeds to break their hard seed coat and promote germination. Utilize a metal file to gently remove part of the seed coat, exposing the pale yellow center.
To begin, soak the seeds in warm water for about 24 hours to promote germination. Submerge the seeds in water, changing it daily to prevent any potential diseases, and allow them to sprout. This process typically takes around 2-4 weeks.
Once sprouted, plant the lotus in small peat pots, ensuring they are just covered in water. Be mindful that the emerging stem is, in fact, a leaf and not the taproot. As the plants grow, increase the water depth accordingly. When transplanting outdoors, exercise caution as the American Lotus is sensitive to root disturbance. Handle with care to ensure successful establishment in its new location.
Nelumbo lutea, also known as the American Lotus, thrives in a variety of water conditions, ranging from muddy shallows to depths of up to six feet. While its roots are anchored in the mud, its striking leaves and beautiful flowers gracefully float on the water's surface.
For those seeking to control its spread or facilitate relocation, cultivating the American Lotus in spacious containers immersed in water at least two feet deep can be a practical approach. It's worth noting that, despite its charm and benefits, this plant has a tendency to spread rapidly under favorable growing conditions and has been listed as an invasive species in states like Connecticut and Rhode Island.

Solid bamboo board set for the price
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
This bamboo cutting board set has been a nice addition to my kitchen. I like having different sizes available, and I especially appreciate being able to reduce how often I use plastic cutting boards. Mine did have a strong odor at first, but after washing them and letting them air out, that went away. They also seem good for the price

Awesome Boards….BUT the Smell!!!!
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
I’d love to give these 5 stars, they are heavy, well made, smooth, deep juice grooves, just nice….but the smell! I washed them, then used vinegar on them, set them outside over night, washed them again….its better but still present. I’d love some guidance on this. I’m hoping it goes away in a few days. It’s like a very strong woodsy smell that actually made my whole kitchen smell like these boards!
Edit: Ok, here's what I did. Washed, let dry, coated and scrubbed with apple cider vinegar, set them in a high air flow area for 24 hours (I put mine outside on the patio over night), washed and scrubbed again, let dry, scrubbed with lemons and salt, let dry, washed again. Finally, there is still a slight smell if you push them against your nose but that seems to be fading as well. So, great boards if you want to go stubbornly go through the smell removal process. I don't think it's a chemical smell, I think it's processed bamboo that is shrink wrapped in air tight packaging too soon after manufacturing. Anyway, I'll move this to 4 stars....but lots of work involved here!
