Marnol D Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Hello, What is the proper way to get bulb plants (dwarf aquarium lily and what not) to sprout? Ive have two bulbs submerged in my tank for 2 weeks and they are still firm but they havent sprouted yet. Would it be possible to sprout them out of water by planting them in a pot with dirt and keeping them wet? Is there any tips to get them to sprout if i try them again? Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingFishKeeper Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Hi again! I'm not sure if you already heard about this but there's a top and bottom to bulbs. According to Cory there's no way to tell which side is correct. If you haven't seen growth after about 3 weeks flip it over. If another 3 weeks have passed without growth you might just have some bad bulbs. there's also a blog post on Aquarium Co-Op's website about it that describes better then I can.
