Does any one have experience on aquriuam plants seeds and if they ever try then before going to do a small experiment with some
Thanks [emoji106]No direct experience but read about this on other forums. The primary complaints I saw were:
• No guarantee of the species of plant the seeds
• Best started via DSM. Dry Start Method is where the seeds are placed on wet substrate and grown under high humidity and decent lighting for a few weeks. Then the tank is “flooded”.
• Longevity: If the plants do grow, then tend to die off a few months later.
There are exceptions, of course.
Did u use c02 this plants needs lotsss of c02. And ferts am going to run high c02 when i deside to put in water am on day five and they are sprouted like heck the thing is i put in two difreent type of seed in my aquriuam one that i got from ebay and a defreent one from china but they all got mix together some how but it looks good one os mini glasso100% agree with Fresh20. I bought some on amazon that were really cheap. The “carpet” plants were actually Hygrophila polysperma, which is a tall long-leaved stem plant. Tons of trouble submerging them and having them die after sprouting. IMO, good as a side project, but not a great way to actually plant your tank.
Thanks on day 5 and iys looking great my dude putting a pic today after work if you want to see itFor small experiment they use aquarium mud and cups , plastic containers what ever you want to use. Mix the mud in contains with water till it is really wet mud and plant seeds, (not deep) and put plastic wrap over the top. Place under good warm light. And in a few days to a wk you should start seeing growth. I'm gonna be doing this soon too. Good luck!
Sweet! Progress... I got a pack of seeds too awhile back. But they are all very little seeds. Probably just some carpet seeds but I'll try them and see. You never know.
Yea just make sure when you fill your tank up with water that you run high co2 or not they will die and liquid fert will be useing Trive plus in this tankSweet! Progress...
