Romania
The text states that Trovants are stones in Romania that grow and multiply after a rain shower.
Trovants in Romania, known for "growing," gain mass through mineral deposits after heavy rains, per multiple web sources. However, they do not grow or multiply biologically, making this more of a geological phenomenon than the living growth. Kidney stones, growing through crystallization, are unrelated in context. Both claims reference growth, but in different contexts—geological for Trovants and biological for kidney stones.

Mostly True
Geology
There are stones in Romania called Trovants that grow and multiply after heavy rain showers.
Trovants in Romania appear to increase in size due to mineral deposits accumulated after rain, as supported by multiple web sources. This phenomenon doesn't imply biological growth but rather a geological process. Sources corroborate the occurrence, but the term 'multiply' is not typical of geological processes, adding some uncertainty.

Multiple sources confirm geological growth of Trovants in Romania after rain, not biological.

Geology
Growing stones exist.
The notion of 'growing stones' can refer to different phenomena. Trovants in Romania grow geologically, not biologically. Web evidence about kidney stones and crystal growth does not directly relate to geological stones but shows growth as a concept. Thus, while growth is a process, context varies, leading to partial validity in specific contexts.
