How To Grow Live Sphagnum Inside A House - 0:00â 2:07â - The first way to grow sphagnum 2:55â - The second way to grow sphagnum 3:58â - How to propagate live sphagnum
I think this is one of the most important videos for CP growers out there. Peat moss and life sphagnum moss are NOT collected responsibly by industry; growing your own moss is the way to go. THANKS!
I use 2cm of clay balls at the bottom and put sphagnum on top. Not sure why, but that works pretty well. I discovered that even if by mistake you put too much water, and it should drown the sphagnum, the LECA floating capability keeps it at the right level.
Did you try leaving the LECA in 0 ppm water for a week and then test the water? Is it leaking minerals or not? I think Sphagnum im less sensitive to minerals than Nepenthes.
@@WindowsillNepenthes Ok, trying to make it short here. a)Wash twice with tap water - b)one more with 0PPM. c)Let in water for one week/change water over 50PPM - d)After 2-3weeks it stops leaking hard, and falls down under 20-25PPM per week - till it becomes less than 30ppm per month ( I prepare that balls seldom and only Bottom pot for CP like Sarracenia - I used also for a Nep, short of material and of a better solution ) For Sphag I stop at c) 1/2days... Sphag doesn't really care for what I saw > I have treated a germinating plate with tap water 200PPM because I forgot to rewash đ€ >I drained it two days later, just in case, but it seems it didn't mind it at all!
What I got is normal agricultural Expanded Clay, not High quality one, I know. They told me from Germany, Seramis is waaay better and nearly not leaking.
â@@WindowsillNepenthesÄ° have grown sphagnum with regular high calcium alkaline tap water and it grows. Ä° think it's tolerant of minerals in water to some extent but you sould be careful because the water it holds propably has still minerals that the moss didn't use so you can't use this moss with carnivorous plants unless you wash it with distilled water to remove them.
This is so helpful and interesting. Sphagnum really does enhance these plants and its worth the effort when you have a lovely collection like yours. Thankyou so much.
insightful video, thank you! could you share, wheather the moss is getting attached to the window netscreen? Asking, because I am looking for a way to grow moss on something that can then be placed vertically, but not simply a wall
Well i will Try this one allso i will place my plants like you did in there. Bit i will take less sphagnum to See How Long itâs Takes to fill everything think you for this Video đđœ
Just found you! I appreciate the video. Could you please explain exactly how you use it with your nepanthese? do you just top dress it if you could give me more details and directions it would be awesome! Thanks in advanceđ
Hi đ Yes I use sphagnum moss for top dressing on my windowsill. In the tents it's more everywhere there's an empty space ;) You have to keep it really humid or spray twice a day.
Once your live sphagnum moss propagations are established in the pots alongside the nepenthes, do you continue spraying multiple times a day? Have you ever tried to revive dried sphagnum moss? Thanks for the video, I hope to grow live sphagnum moss once I get my hands on some!
Usually once topping the pots, I have to continue to spray them once a day as it is dryer on a windowsill. But in a greenhouse/terrarium-like environment, it should be fine with spraying every 2-3 days I think. And for me, I never revived dead sphagnum... I guess it depends of where the sphagnum come from and how old is it.
Ä° have successfully revived dried sphagnum moss from commercial compressed dried moss (since i can't find fresh sphagnum in my country). But i think it depends on the brand..it needs to not be heat treated. The revival was sporadic (since it's being propably dried for years) but enough so you can cut it and multiply it to make a dense culture
Some of the dry sphagnum moss I potted my first nep in is returning to a green color after a couple months under lights. Could I propagate this eventually or is it not "alive"?
It never happen to me, but if it's really sphagnum for sure you can! Just make sure it's not some other random moss growing on the top of dead sphagnum (like star moss). ;)
Dry stuff is always dead due to heat treatment, but sometimes there are spores in it that survive and can grow as live sphagnum, but it is also possible that your sphagnum is turning green due to algae growth.
Yes, it was D. Andromeda. Is your plant adult (flowering)? If yes, then maybe consider reducing the light. I'm not a drosera expert but this species can be sensitive to light.
nice video! I have some sphagnum growing in a terrarium by the windowsill. Gonna try to expand my grow area for it over the summer since it's a great replacement for peat, which is a nonrenewable resource :)
thanks a lot! i have some questions tho, do you water with distilled/rain water or just tap water? and if i grow it indoors do i have to change anything during the winter? like dormancy or colder temperature or something..?
@@WindowsillNepenthes thank you!! iâm also wondering, how do you keep sphagnum and nepenthes together? donât nepenthes need a lot of sunlight? i tried adding some sphagnum to my venus flytrap under UV light, and the sphagnum didnt even last a day. just instantly turned white..
@@owo6430 I use grow light on the basement but the sphagnum on the windowsill gets less light but is still good. I believe Nepenthes don't want as much light as Dionaea. Maybe your light is too intense?
I've watched your video on cococoir and one of mine is in pure coco coir (no perlite ) for nearly a year, I bought it that way. It is making a pitcher right now that is not open yet. Should I wait until it is fully formed, or should I take advantage of the growing season to repot?
There is not really a growing season for nepenthes but I would wait to see the pitcher before repotting. Then as soon as another one will come: repot ;)
Nice video Remi, I wonder what is the best species of Sphagnum to grow indoor. Very few informations available on this precise topic... Keep going đđ»
I must to admit, I don't know the sphagnum species... the green grow faster than the red, I have 2 kind of green and the thin one is the fastest... but I don't know the names...
Okay so does blueberries stain or dye sphagnum moss red? Or is that normal for it to be beautiful red? I'm just learning about sphagnum but I've litterly been fishing on top of it my whole life.
@@WindowsillNepenthes okay cuz this is a huge sphagnum bog covered with blueberries, it is brilliant red in patches and then green and yes yellow and brown dead but the red in spots on some lakes just goes around the whole thing. I really love walking on the bogs while trout fishing for brook trout. It's like walking on a bouncy sponge.
Hi sir, sorry it is me again. I have managed to keep moss alive this time. My problem sir is when i use it in my plants, they grow algae. I dont really know what i am doing wrong anymore since i read that too much water makes it grow algae but i use little water only in my trays
What about the humidity and most important the 'air flow' (or ventilation)? If there is a lack of air circulation (the box is closed with no holes), then yes the algae can come. Try to clean the sphagnum from most algae (in rainwater) and put it in bright and warm place (no direct sun on the box) and make sure you have holes on the top of the box, or maybe the lid isn't totally closed. Let me know how it work in 2 months
Hmm i leave my trays open and spray a lot. I live in the philippines, naturally humid here. I guess it is air flow and heat. Thank you sir :) love your content
Not really. I use train water so there is a little bit of nutriments on it (from the roof). But when I spray my plants with diluted orchid fertilizer, the sphagnum get some too so that helps.
Not really useful. It will just reminds me that the humidity is too low by turning white/dry. I use it mainly because it's nice and prevent me forgetting to water my pots ;)
@@WindowsillNepenthes hmm, nope. Definitely not light becuase it is covered in plastic so it is humid too. I really dont know why the centers of mine are turning hard đł
Btw, i am not into nepenthes because pitcher plants are endemic in my country. You could get impprisoned for keeping ones without permit so i only keep sundews and vft but i really enjoy your content :) you reply fast and your videos are short but filled with so much information
I hear some grow it from the dry moss that comes in packages.??? Now I have lots of windows, no grow lights. Now Orchid do not go in direct sun. Does moss need direct sun to grow and die in pots in house???? I live in Mexico, I do not have access to live sphagnum moss. I canât buy from you. Customs would not allow it. And if it did get through, it would be 6 weeks.
I have heard that dried sphagnum moss has come back to life, but I have never seen proof of it and it has never happened to me... For the sphagnum in Mexico, I have to idea, sorry.
Nutrients !!!! Try Fogponics with small quantity of nutrients. Real peat bogs have floating moss on water - they get the nutrients from the water below full of dead and decaying plant and animal matter (the water is full of bacteria). The plants capture insects, but are themselves overtaken by the moss - so the moss gets the nutrients eventually, and the decaying moss provides habitat for new plants to root in. It's symbiosis, so don't grow it in isolation - you need the combination of plants.
Hi, thank you for the video! So helpful. In your experience, is it possible to recover sphagnum that has turned white? I had some in a mason jar on the window sill and it is losing colour. I moved it out of direct light, and I am going to transfer it to a tray as you suggest. Do you think the tray method would work with a lid, as an alternative to misting several times a day? Do you add any growing medium to the tray before laying down the moss? It looks like you have perlite or something similar in the video. Thanks a bunch!
Yes, I put a lid on my sphagnum trays. đ And yes, it should recover if it was white for to long. I don't put any substrate under my sphagnum by the way.
Hi Remi, may i know the recommended humidity , temp and light requirements to take care of live spaghnum moss. I am planning to take care of it under my basement here in canada. My temp here is at 22 degrees. I want to propagate them too. Great content. Thanks
@@WindowsillNepenthes can i use distilled water? How much lux value should it have? Also if there are pest inside the live spaghnum moss how do you get rid of them? Thank you Remi.
@@williamong4911 Distilled water would works but add a little something to help it grow faster. For the pests the only one I have are fungus gnats. And predatory mites or nematodes would help but you can only manage them... they will come back.
Hi Remy, i got a live spaghnum moss and i tried using your technique its growing good. I am planning to propagate them by transferring to a bigger trays. Currently, using a tupperware with a holes on top of the cover. New small heads are coming out. How many inches should i cut them from the head? If i cut the head will the bottom part of it will still grow new shoots? Currently, in a small rectangular tupperware and one small circle tupperware. I might leave the other one on the same area which is in the dinning then transfer the other at my basement and use another rectangular tupperware with the same lux it gets. Thanks
I aint even a carnivorous plant grower. I have just two of them. I just thought this would be an incredibly POG way to do aroid propagation:-D In a live moss tray:-D Lets go:-D
For volume, the mini greenhouse + additional full spectrum light is the best. As soon as the sphagnum in thicker than 1 inch, you cut the top and lay it down on the window screen. It's not fast, but with 1 'mother tray' you should be able to do 2-3 trays a year with no problem ;)
I had posted a link to a video on tiktok with some lush moss and I wanted to ask what it is but I think it was flagged as spam đ right now I'm sad my drosera capensis and drocera spatula (just got from etsy) doing bad, first slow growing from windowsill, I thought not enough sun đą and I put them outside with my venus fly traps and I think they were attacked by thrips or mites or both, with leaves not developing correctly đą.
