Hello m...
If you're referring to my tank pics, there's no mystery to growing aquatic plants, if you avoid the more demanding ones that require high end lighting to grow.
I have low to moderate light light plants and have less than 1 watt of light per gallon of tank size. If you can get your lighting into the 1 to 2 watt per gallon range, you can grow most plants.
I have a lot of different plants in pots as you've seen with organic potting soil covered by pea gravel.
Low to moderate light plants do need good liquid fertilizers dosed several times a week.
If you're interested in specifics, just let me know. I'm never too busy to chat about planted tanks.

How old is this tank? Can you tell us about your stock and equipment?
