Just about any stem plant I buy eventually rots from the bottom up. I can not figure out what’s causing it or how to fix it.
I have sand as a substrate, and have tried to put the plants in small cups with gravel in it to give it more circulation. I’ve tried spacing the plants out so they all get plenty of light at the base. I’ve tried experimenting with the fertilizer. I’ve even tried floating them in my 5 gallon until they grow better roots, then putting them in the substrate to grow better root systems before I put them in my 75 gallon. I’ve even tried the liquid co2 in the 5 gallon.
Nothing seems to help.
Any advice would be great!
