To acclimate to my environment, I put all the semps (that I have gotten thru trading and/or thru the generosity of other ATPers) into nursery flats. I then leave them sitting on top or barely buried into the soil. I find that some semps arrive at my house with leaves twisted or bent under, roots gnarled, stolons really long, semp heads a little mushy, etc and so they don't look quite ready to throw out into the semp bed or potted up and put out into the elements. I wish I could have an acclimation semp bed which would be more convenient for maintenance. I have two nursery flats waiting for transfer to the semp bed.
