75 Gallon Tank Plant care until tank ready

[Cara]

Received my plants a little early and I won't be able to work on my new tank until Sunday (3 days)

Some are in tissue culture, others are in a plastic bag ATM (onion plant, anubias, bolbitis, and microsorium).

So I don't kill them before Sunday, should I drop them in a bucket of dechlorinated water? Or float them in the tank that I'll be using to jump start my new tank?

I'm thinking the tissue culture ones will be okay but I could be wrong about that. Any thoughts appreciated
TIA

You can place all plants in a tank or vase filled with water, placed in a bright location until your tank is ready or longer.

Thanks. Would tap water be ok?

In general, yes, most definitely. Most plants adapt. some slowly, others fast. It takes a while before growth catches up. Especially if plants were grown emersed by whoever you purchased from, they need time to adapt. In which case, it can take a month or so...
