Getting started with seeds: seeking advice

Post by coltin »

Those plants are still too young and small to have produced seeds, they need to mature out of the water to bloom and set seed.

You've got a generous amount of seeds in that packet, 7500 pcs is a lot.

If you want to remove the seeds, your best bet is to gravel clean the substrate and hope you can vacuum them up.

The plant resembles duckweed, but I'm also thinking it could be a type of hemianthus, possibly from Cuba. I'm really torn about the seeds, as it seems unlikely they'll work, but I've seen some people succeed with this. A lot of seeds sold aren't suitable for underwater life, which is why they often fail. However, I do know some people have made it work - I just don't know their methods.
