Water depth for small starts
« on: July 15, 2013, 09:37:49 AM »
I have a number of small start waterlilies.  I have usually tried to match the water depth with height of the pad growth.  I am trying to consolidate all the small lilies.  Trying to clear space for some stock tanks.  They will hopefully be moved to the yard in two weeks.

So to my question.  Can I put the small starts in deeper water for about two weeks? It would be a least a foot over the pads.

Have any plastic storage crates (milk crates) or baskets you can turn upside down to raise them closer to the surface?

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)
