Begonias have been growing like crazy in their vase! Their leaf mass has nearly doubled since a few months ago...

Wow, @CeeSing, those begonias are looking great! It’s amazing how much they’ve grown. @costafarmsteam, any tips on keeping begonias thriving in hydroponics like this? Would love to hear your thoughts!
@Aikalovesphilos I'm not sure if you're asking me, but I just cut the stems and put them in water. They grew roots within a week and then new leaves within 2 weeks. The grow light is definitely the biggest factor since I have begonias in vials on my wall and they don't grow nearly as fast! The shape of the vase probably helps too since the water doesn't evaporate as much, so the water level fluctuates less.
