    I just tried my sample Balance-K and Aquatilizer. The thing is, the amount that comes out from the pump is very little, probably half a teaspoon. Is this correct, or do I have to release the pump head*?

    *You know... those shampoo pumps that require you to twist them a couple of times before they pop up and you can actually pump with gusto

    I must say the Rossetta is doing my crypts good

    Do I use Stemma for Cyperus Helferi? Because Helferi is more of a runner plant if you ask me...

    That should be Rossetta. My crypts are looking good a few days after I added it.

    Its good for HC too. I have one sprig of HC that's withering after intensive H2O2 treatment nearby, after inserting a stemma capsule, its starting to recover nicely. Now to see if I can repopulate my foreground entirely based on this one surviving sprig.

    One capsule will last 3 or 4 weeks, after that it needs to be changed.

    No one knows about the pump?

    Maybe you can get a pipette or a small turkey baster to apply the fert.
    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
    Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.

    base on the manufacturer, the capsules should last a month for a minimum. The capsules will melt in 15minutes and release the content to the surround gravel. So it will be good to put it deeper down, but where the roots can reach.

    Stemma is meant for plants with stems above ground and internodes, such as a stem plant. Cyperus helferi is more a rosetta in this case. Same for most eriocaulon species and echindorous, valisneria etc.
