From submersed to emersed a bit tricky. First few try was dry up. Due to no cover. Try to get the fine sand mix with the clay or any base fert. If sand and clay ratio is 50:50. If sand and base fert is 70:30. water level must above the HC. Cover it with any transparent cover or cleanwrap. Put it under indirect sun. Remember to make few holes for them to breath.

Must check every few days to make sure the water is not dry up. Make sure the soil is wet all the time after 2-3 weeks.

dom, the sand i use is the soil in the hc u bought from pg. i mix with clay. but always failure when i convert them. the submerse hc u wan...i will go check it out for you in few days time.
