How Do You Attach Plants to Lava Rocks?

You can attach plants to lava rocks primarily using rubber bands to secure them.

Here's a breakdown of how to attach plants to lava rocks, based on the provided reference:

1. Use Rubber Bands: Rubber bands are a common and relatively safe way to attach plants to lava rocks, especially in aquatic environments.

2. Secure the Plant:

   • Position the plant against the lava rock where you want it to grow.
   • Take a rubber band.
   • Tie the rubber band around the plant and the rock to hold them together. Make sure to tie the band high up on the plant (near the base).

3. Placement: Place the lava rock with the attached plant in the desired location.

It's important to note that the rubber band will eventually degrade, but by that time, the plant's roots should have attached themselves to the porous surface of the lava rock. Other methods can also be used, but the video specifically mentions rubber bands.
