By some feat of umm non-planning I've got (some of) my plants but my tank isn't ready.
Right now they are in a bucket of dechlorinated water with a dose of Seachem Flourish.
How long can they stay in the bucket? I think it's going to be at least Tuesday maybe Wednesday before I'm ready to put them in the tank.
Or should I just somehow cram them into my 125L for now (fish don't need room to swim right? (jk))
 
they will last, but make sure they are weighted or potted, if left floating the will grow in a twisted shape making planting harder when you come round to doing it.
dialy water changes of 100% are necassary too, and daylight will be fine, dont put it somehwere where sunlight will be beaming down on it all day,
 
Cheers Aaron,
They're all roots down, although some leaf tips are poking out the top. I keep going out and dunking them, not that it's probably doing much to help.
