Alternatively u can use 'chopstick' like one of my fren do.

Happy planting,

Have to admit that i have been planting everything by hand so far, lest on 1 occasion but it rusted after that, though I always tell pple that tweezers is the best way. Planted hairgrass, HC, glosso, APP, etc etc with my trusty fingers.

Will have problems and the main ones are those with planting them close together as planting by hand tends to disturb the neighbouring plants and the substrate will look terribly uneven.

When I upgrade to 4 feet I confirm use tweezers, but for my 2 feets and nanos.. I use my 2 good friends for now..
