the trick regards the stream no it wont rise as for mold using pro cilicate from gro tek it stops mold boosts flowers also helps fight
the nitrogen back too as for feed alaska mor bloom 0-10-10 no nitrogen at all in it

bolting:

What is bolting

But, while plants do not “run away” physically, their growth may run away rapidly, and this is basically what this phrase means in the gardening world. Plants, mostly vegetable or herbs, are said to bolt when there growth goes rapidly from being mostly leaf based to being mostly flower and seed based.
Why do plants bolt

Most plants bolt due to hot weather. When the ground temperature goes above a certain temperature, this flips a switch in the plant to produce flowers and seeds very rapidly and to abandon leaf growth almost completely.
Bolting is a survival mechanism in a plant. If the weather get to be above where the plant will survive, it will try to produce the next generation (seeds) as quickly as possible.

Not sure how it relates to canna plants tho?

Indica they are all looking great, when do you expect them to flower?
