i bought a few plants from the local fish/pet store. Im trying them in Dirt with sand mixed, from my yard . in a Clear storage container . im a first timer . hope they live, if not i just wasted 20.00 , and i have more plants coming in form a seller on Ebay. hope they make it to me alive .. and im using root tabs along with brine shrimp cubes. ill be getting the plant food soon .and ill change to that and do away with the root tabs and cubes. wish me luck ..

I tried this method before years. It is amazing. No need to use aquasoil, just regular soil. The key is in the light! Put the plants in regular soil, give them very high light and see what happens after few weeks. I tried with hemianthus cuba, staurogyne repens, alternathera reineckii mini, lobelia cardinalis and more ... Amazing results for all of them. If someone want to see , just tell me, i will send you pictures.

hello. thanks for the video. 1-How do plants get oxygen and co2 in an enclosed box? 2-why do this method instead of just planting the cuttings back in the tank or root them in a glass of water? 3- Whats the huge plant at 6:03 to the left of the tank?
@AquascapingCube7 ай бұрын
No problem! 1 - There are small ventilation holes at the top. 2 - No water = No algae risk. You can use a lot of light and grow them very fast. And keep them for longer if you are not planning to plant them in the same tank. Very useful if you have more tanks. 3 - Echinodorus Amazonicus

@AquascapingCube8 ай бұрын
It can. But you need to be careful with temperature. If the sun will heat up your container - it will kill the plants. Strong light is ok, as long as the temperature stays reasonable (below 30C)

very nice man but i have few questions! i have peat moss soil will it work alone? also do i have to fully cover the container and prevent air to come in? and finally do i have to spray with water daily? thanks alot in advance!
@AquascapingCube2 ай бұрын
Hi, I think that peat moss might work on for plants that like very acidic soils and it doesn't have enough nutrients to work alone. You should cover it, but you can leave very small holes to let air go through. I spray mine depending on the humidity inside, but often only every 3 days and it works just fine. It all depends on specific batch of plants and container - just observe them and spray when you see there is no water condensating inside :)

Do you experience melting when submerging them back into tanks? Apologies if this has been addressed in comments already.

Only Alternanthera Reinecki is melting at the beginning, but once it adjusts to the water - it's growing just fine. Staurogyne and Ludwigia are adjusting the best and very fast.

I plan to do that for Monte Carlo, Staugyrone Repens and few other plants which almost went away after ending at wrong spot (shaded by other plants) or got eaten by Angelfish. Currently my tanks are low-tech with deep dirted substrate, so the plants grow at decent, but not furious pace.
