laferme Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Just purchased these plants ,read that I should use thread to tie to structure.Should I put roots under bottom gravel,or is it ok for the roots just to be tied to the old sea shell and above bottom gravel base?

Katherine Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 The roots do not need to be in the gravel. You can also use super glue if you think that would be easier than thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubber bands also work well, easier to handle than glue and thread. Excuse the dirty sponge filter😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laferme Posted February 18, 2023 Author Share Posted February 18, 2023 Thanks Katherine ,I already used the tread since yesterday and they spent their first night submersed ,that's weird the roots can be exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 the only thing to be concerned about is that you dont bury the rhizome. other than that, plant away, tie them or glue them to objects. if you want them on the bottom, just plant the roots.
