Emersed Plants Grown In A Propagator

I thought I'd share some pics of my little side project.  I wanted to see which plants were easy to grow emerged so I experimented with a few different samples of plants from my tanks to see what would happen.
 
The left side of the propagator is mostly devoted to monoselenium tenerum and the right side is a medley of different stems.
Most of the plants are thriving, the only one I'm having problems with so far is dwarf saggitaria.
 
Three weeks after planting:
 

 
With lid on:
 

 
Staurogyne repens loving the fresh air!
 

 
Lindernia rotundifolia which has been pathetically struggling in all my tanks, doing beautifully emersed!
 

 
Bacopa australis creeping and staying low instead of reaching up for the surface as it does in my tanks:
 

 
Monoselenum tenerum slowly making progress:
 

 
Eleocharis acicularis sending out runners very quickly:
 

Looks great, how did you set  this up?
 
Normal garden soil, aquatic soil ?
 
Added any nutrients?
ferts/root tabs or just water
 
Leaving the propagator by the window 24/7 ?
 
Sorry for all the questions.
 
Looks a good little experiment/project.
 
Cant wait to see end results

John Innes no. 3 compost, waterlogged just below the surface of the soil.  No other ferts.
 
Lid left on with vents closed, by south facing window for maximum sunlight.
 
I also forgot there's some other plants in there, a little bit of hydrocotyl tripartita which is doing well, pogostemon helferi not doing so well.  
 
In the last pic you can see a short stem of lobelia cardinalis lying on its side on the soil, with new growth spurting upwards from where the old leaf joints were.  This is how I propagated all the stems.

Excellent
 
Will keep an eye on this for updates, might be something I want to do as well
