What I did its bury the roots and just push alittle bit further , usually they grow best if u keep them 1-1.5 inches away from eachother and add some root tabs, it might take them alittle bit to start growing but then they will take off IME

YA mine is taking what feels like forever to take off. It grows I have a few that are about 5 inches tall or so but it wont fill out. i think i have lost more then half of what I originally started with. I havent seen it yet but I think something is pulling them out. Its just a big pain having to replant them everyday. I'm waiting on them to spread like my jungle val. I bought two of those plants about 4 months ago and now I have 15 plants in different tanks.

when i got mine...i trim off half of the roots so that half of the roots that is being planted don't get squash in the substrate.

 

Mine are just putting out new leaf each day.

he thanks that vid showed some good stuff. and i use tweezers as well for most plants. just cause I like how little it disturbs the substrate and I find i break a lot less stem plants with them. My big thing is the plants keep coming up and i started burrying them deeper but i don't want to kill them from them getting too deep. and I'm a bit impatient cause I want to see hope that I can form a carpet with it. but if nothing is propagating then nothing will carpet... how long should dwarf sag take to carpet? I know tears and stuff should take like 3 weeks to fill in.
