a different aquasoil question

[plantnoob]

not far off of planting now , and im all but decided that im going to go with aquasoil amazonia . 1 question though . although im about 2 weeks off of planting , id like to get it in the tank asap to get a headstart on waterchanging all the leeched ammonia and tannins out . will it be ok to do this ?

Yes although you might want to empty the tank of water to plant up when the time comes.

 

[plantnoob]

yep , i was going to drain the tank down and "dry plant" then slowly re-fill . i was more concerned about it turning to mush in that time

 

[foxfish]

It doesn't turn to mush, or not for at least a few years, in fact I still have some that is at least two years old.
However there is a lot of loose dust that comes with it & that will cloud the water if you don't fill up very slowly & patiently.
