Re: Propagating Live Sphagnum moss
I have a few pots of sphagnum moss in different locations and growing conditions. Generally they grow pretty well.
I have two pots that I put in my garden under direct sunlight for the whole day, they grow exceptionally well despite the hot burning sun. I watered them twice a day, is this the trick?
There are another two pots (from two different sources) I hung under the orchid shade netting where I grew my neps in, they grew into two different pattern, one grew long, another grew in lumps. They are next to each other but appeared differently.
Another pot I placed under bright spot only receiving two to three hours of direct morning sun, this one appeared bushy too.
I think sphagnum moss grow pretty fast, it's just that the incorrect temperature, lighting and humidity that stunt the growth. High humidity, temperature not exceeding 35°C & good lighting should do the trick. Once they adapted to our condition, they'll grow quite fast and steadily.
