be aware that not all plants pearl.. pearling is a sign of fast growth, if you have slow growing varieties of moss for instance you might not ever see pearling from them. pearling purely happens when a plant produces more O2 than can be absorbed into the water layer around the leaf.
also, dont worry too much if you dont see pearling, steady, healthy growth is what you need to be looking for more, that will in turn, keep algae at bay.
