Default amazon sword and micro sword- help!
Hi,

Microsword i am not sure on but the amazon sword you want the base of the plant just above the gravel.the roots need to be buried.

As far as ferts go,swords are root feeders.If you find the plants lacking in health,place a few root tabs under the gravel for them.
