Hello everyone;
Given that my CO2 system likely won't be operational for a few weeks, I intend to use the Dry Start Method to start my foreground plants; I'm going to plant some HC and hairgrass.
I have read Tom's posts and researched on how to implement the DSM most effectively. However, I am still a little unsure about fertilisation during the process.
If I'm using Eco-Complete as my substrate, should I place root tabs in the substrate bed before I fill with water to emergence? Should I dose macro/micro traces into this water before adding it? This is slightly ambiguous to me given what I've read.
Any input that could be provided would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I've moved this to the Sediment board.
