Hi members,
hope you're all doing good ?
I need a really important advice.
tonight i am receiving 200 plants from a french web site. As you know where i live it is impossible to find locally plants for aquascaping. so a friend and I decided to order on one part more than a hundred plants form his 900L tank, and on the other part we have take a lot of different pieces to put in our pond like that we can have a nice stock for what ever scape we want. And of course there is some plants for my two tanks at home. if you want you can visit my journal about our tropical pond .

So the problem is that my friend have lost a member of his family and have to travel tomorrow to europe for two weeks for this reason, and we are receiving all the plants tonight.
All the plants that we order are emerge form, so what should we do until he come back ?
should I take the pots and simply put them in the pond, (just the pot with the wool underwater and the leafs outside of the water) ?
they wont die all this time in the wool ? there is 20 pot of HC some lilaeopsis ect would they be ok for two weeks like that.
we have already grow with success HC, glosso, lilaeopsis, ludwigia arcuata, HM, rotalas ect... but it was with black sand substrate. We just don't want to lose 150 plants in the pond lol.
I just need an advice for keeping the plants alive and in good shape until he comeback.
hope that I will have your support and some good advices as usual on ukaps !!!!
I am also excited to received my plants because i will rescape my 90 L with a lots of cryps and add some staurogyne repens and staugoryne porto vehlo for my 260L yeaaah.
cheer guys
thanks for your time and sorry for the mistaks in my writing.

You could potentially split the order between the pond and the set up tank, leaving the plants in their pots in the tank... That way, if one fails at least you still have some plants...
