Hi,
E tenellus being too invasive in my 45L dry starting nano, I replaced it with eleocharis acicularis 2 days ago. Plantlets were freshly bought from a Dennerle source, so probably should acclimate easily to the emersed setup.
I see that the needle shaped leaves stay sticked forming a thick unique stem. I fear that letting the leaves compacted as they are that the most inner ones rot/melt.
Should I try to aerate them separating the leaves as I can, cut the whole thing to 1-2cm above soil and let it grow or just leave them as they are and they will separate by them selves
Many thanks for your advice
