@TheUrbanNemophilist 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks. Moss is slow growing when it comes to home propagation setups The strands can grow tall quite fast but takes very long to cover surface area. Sometimes they may not grow if the right balance of temperature, humidity and light is not achieved. It’s always challenging to mimic conditions that helps moss to grow in nature.

@TheUrbanNemophilist Жыл бұрын

This is an old video. I actually used up the moss for my projects in the next couple of weeks. I have several boxes now and they double up as plant conditioning boxes as well. Typically moss will grow leggy and tall in enclosed spaces. The growth is mostly vertical and very minimal as ground cover.

ABHIJEET AVATE we are trying to grow moss in closed containers here and any direct sunlight would create a greenhouse effect and the extreme heat generated will kill the moss. I have great results using cool white lights. If you study the natural habitat of moss you will find them growing in cool dark and damp places. Of course there is light which they need for photosynthesis but that is filtered and intermittent.

I have a question. Do I really need Led lights to propagate moss? Can I just put them into the propagation box and place it inside my room without direct sunlight? Thank you. I hope that you will notice my question

Arvin Macanas you will need led lights if you want positive results.

How to bring springtail? How much light does it need? Where to collect the moss?

@TheUrbanNemophilist 4 жыл бұрын

UNBOX LEISURE you can collect spingtails from the forest. They are usullay found in moist and damp places like under rocks and tree trunks. They dont need much light and thrive in low or no light conditions. Moss can also be collected from the forest.

This is helpful, but please make an update video. I'm subscribing now, thanks. Also if you have a discord or else so I can ask some question to you directly to help me set up my vivarium & aquascape (mostly about moss), that would be great.

Thanks. I used up all the moss so the box is empty now. Need to go collecting moss again. You can ask me questions in the comments section of my videos
