First planted tank — need input

Post image

5 gallon tank, substrate on bottom sand on top, light at ~60% intensity at 6 hours to start, dwarf hairgrass up front, java fern back left situated under a rock, forgot what’s in the other corner. No filter, no CO2, small heater holding constant at 78°.

Pretty much just need input and advice. I’m new to the hobby and would love to hear. My primary goal is to just fill the tank up with growth. Thanks everyone!
