It is loved so much because it is very easy to grow, is quite hardy, and does not require high lighting to thrive. It can get so tall that it drapes over the top of the aquarium, which helps to make fish feel more secure. Jungle val propagates itself quite easily by sending out runners which develop into new plants. When it is well-established, you can get a new shoot as soon as every 3 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cem\u003eVallisneria americana\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNative To:\u003c\/strong\u003e North, Central, and South America\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEasy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Background\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight Requirement: \u003c\/strong\u003eMedium Light 20-35 PAR (click to see our PAR chart)\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e Requirement:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreferred Fertilizer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEasy Green liquid fertilizer and Easy Root Tabs\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePropagation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spreads via runners across the ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e***Being a natural product, sizes can vary from what is shown.***\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to Plant Jungle Vallisneria\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.

Wash off any remaining debris, and gently separate the plant into multiple small clumps if possible.\u003cbr\u003e3. Use planting tweezers or your fingers to push the roots of the plant deeply into the substrate until they are completely buried. Pull out the plant slightly so that the base of the leaves are not covered with substrate.\u003cbr\u003e4.
