I tried growing moss years ago without much success. You make it look easy. Love your videos! You should start talking. It's easier to watch and listen than to watch and read.

It looks like you moved away from the bleach serialization tech for the wood. any reason for this? Thanks for the great video! nice to see another upload so recent :)

I've been trying out different methods - this method and also using hydrogen peroxide are also acceptable. I think I might make a video showcasing all the different methods. The bleach method works for small pieces but vinegar tends to soak deeper which is why I wanted to try it out.

@@forestfloorterrariums Very interesting! I would have thought the bleach to have been the most penetrating of the group. That's a nice idea, I look forward to it!

After they grow well, can they survive without sealed container?

@forestfloorterrariums Ай бұрын

This depends on your surrounding environment. If you live in a tropical/humid area then yes. If you live in a semi-arid area then I wouldn't suggest it

@@forestfloorterrariums thank you for taking the time to reply. Your explanation is very helpful, I really want to make it like you did but I doubt the moss will last.

Does this work on any type of bark and moss combination? And is the lid necessary? Great video!

@forestfloorterrariums 28 күн бұрын

I'm pretty sure you can grow on many types of wood/bark. You might struggle with smoother texture wood or wood that has a waxy feel. The lid is only necessary to increase humidity - you need around 70% humidity for moss

what should i do if it has appeared mold on the wood? how can i avoid it for the next time?

@forestfloorterrariums 4 ай бұрын

You can target clean the mold with either white vinegar or hydrogen peroxide (use a Qtip). It might take a few rounds of cleaning but eventually the mold will stop coming back To avoid it, you can buy wood from aquarium shops because the wood is treated commercially or you just need to properly sterrilize the sticks before use - there's multiple methods of doing this

@@forestfloorterrariums the video you have in your channel is a good option to sterilize wood, right?

@stancexpunks 2 ай бұрын

⁠@@naimsalah06 of course it’s a good option, otherwise he wouldn’t have made the video lol? But if you have the moss/wood piece in an enclosure like a terrarium, you can add springtails and other similar critters that act as a ‘clean up crew’ eating up decaying matter which will help to keep mold at bay.
