That tank is very low tech. No CO2, no liquid ferts, just some Flourish tabs in the substrate and weekly water changes. That’s probably a couple months of growth. On my high tech tanks with CO2 and auto dosing of Perpetual Preservation System macros and micros, wisteria can grow like that in a week or two. I remove handfuls of wisteria every week.
I recently rescaped that tank, thinning the plants, removing some wood, and adding an aquasoil. I might tech it up soon with some CO2 and PPS dosing.

Fantastic. I really enjoy a little flourish here and there. Can’t wait to see the new version of the tank!
