I have actually seen some green come back in that "dead and dried" stuff. It wasn't from that brand you show, tho. It was shipped dried and ready to pot with some carnivorous plants I bought from another company. TOTALLY unexpected, but very welcome and excited to see.

[@vinh8673]

I love listening to you talk! (That sounds creepy, so let me clarify.) You have a very calm, soothing voice and cadence which makes you seem like you're the nicest person on earth. I used to listen to this one guy on QVC (a home shopping network) in the mornings just because he had this super calm and positive way of talking. So..when I listen to you talk, it has the same effect as the guy on QVC which is very calming and de-stressing. Since yours is a plant channel, it also sort of motivates me to get into my grow room and get stuff done. Also..I don't know if I ever mentioned this, and I don't know if you ever watched Buffy the vampire slayer, but in one episode, they start it out as an homage to masterpiece theatre. When I made one of my book videos, I did an homage to that in my intro and then I saw your video where you had done an homage to it as well, and I just wanted to let you know that I got it. Well done.

Hii Brad, i have moss layered on flat tuber ware with lid.. spray with hand water spray.. but they grow so slowly. i am hoping they grow fast.. like weed.. but they are not like growing at all.. the side which is facing window is growing taller.. bright tender green color.. apart from that, they just do not reproduce much .. i thought they were lid closed.. they need air to have food... so i crack the lid a bit.. in door at 26C and dry air.. ..result tips were dried and changed color. i also in another tuber ware layered on crashed charcoal.. just to try out if it work.. previously i layered them on potting soil... but it get sadder... hence changed to charcoal as base. so they will not be soaking on wet substrate. pls advice how to make them grow faster.. how to reproduce them faster. thanks andrew

[@cindyhollings2079]

I bought dried moss from a big box hardware in Australia, wet it and popped into a terrarium, where it sprouted and lives very happily. I guess this stuff was dried naturally and not treated.

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

Also..I never thought a moss no doubt collected in a far north cold and wet climate would do so well indoors in 80f temps all summer and 70's all winter. Amazing really.

Hi. I have wild sphagnum moss growing in my garden( the moss in my garden looks exactly like sphagnum). Would it be safe for me to dry it and grow my carnivorous plants seeds in it?

[@LearnGermanwithMarzipanfrau]

I don't think you should dry it, but you could wash it, squeeze it and put it like in the video to your plant for humidity.

[@julienboisvert2488]

Where do yo buy your live sphagnum moss? I'm from Québec,CAN . Than la

[@walley2637]

I get it to grow from any dried and bagged stuff I buy. I used to use it as a mulch on my bonsai (it helps draw the roots towards the surface) I came upon the method by accident when I put a bag around a pot when I went on holidays for 2 weeks. I returned to find a dark green slime all over it (which is the 1st stage of growth) it took a month of keeping it semi covered and spraying it daily to get it fully established, but that patch I grew is still going strong 3 years later!. I have 3 pots in the process now and after 2 weeks.. sure enough I see green patches!

[@xxpowwowbluexx]

Amazing!

[@georgesebastian5323]

👍 very informative 👍

[@cunie8309]

If the structure is slimy and flat, that's probably an algae

[@laurajean1855]

Your voice and speaking manner is very soothing. I appreciate that you don't talk too fast, it gives me time to absorb the information you are relaying. Thanks for the helpful video. I have some sphagnum moss that came wrapped around a succulent. It's mostly still green. I'm hoping to save it and grow it if possible!

[@lorib1696]

I know this is an old video, but it's a useful one. Brad, the package of moss you held up looks like the same brand I order through the mail. It's imported from New Zealand. I have been told (but I can't swear to it,) that by law sphagnum moss cannot be exported from New Zealand unless it has been irradiated. I don't know if that's true, but it would explain why that brand of moss just does not sprout. On the other hand, I've also bought some dried sphagnum moss locally from Lowes. The brand is Better-Gro Premium Grade Orchid Moss. This sphagnum moss is imported from Chile, but it looks just like the stuff from New Zealand. I bought some 2 or 3 months ago and it's sprouting like mad under the grow lights. Everything with sphagnum is turning nice and green. I guess for anyone trying to sprout their own just keep trying different brands until you find one that sprouts.

[@bluefrog8670]

That stuff does come back to life. You just have to keep it moist and give it light. At first it seems like its growing algae, then the moss starts growing.

[@sarrakitty]

Not the New Zeland sphagnum, they sterilize it with hot steam before export, all the spores will be dead. Irinically some of the "crappy" brands are more likely to sprout because they are lower quality moss that was harvested right in North America and not treated at all before bagging it up. So you can get all sorts of spores and things in there.

[@bluefrog8670]

@@sarrakitty No, I've had the New Zealand stuff come back to life. I've also had it grow little patches of some kind of grass I've never seen before.

[@MrHOmo1992]

I buy my live sphagnum as dried moss at home depot. As soon as I bring it home I soak it in the bag and stick it in my basement fridge (no light) for 3 months. Then I take it out and make a moss slurry out of it and grow it in sterilize tubs until it grows a little. Live sphagnum is a staple here in my garden for propagation (extremely useful for air layering trees)

[@andrewyek]

hii MrHOmo1992 you put moss in fridge ? and they grow ? i use moss the same way as you.. but they are just not reproductive... i don't get more of them.. how to encourage them to reproduce > i am in Germany.. same weather as in uk. thanks appreciate it. andrew

[@kenjiro2676]

andrew ysk keep them humid and give them nice bright and indirect light. Simple. Water with distilled water or rain water and all is good.

[@andrewyek]

i heard they like acidic water.. i used tap water for weeks.. but nothing encouraging.. hence i tried to add in a bit of cooking acid to make the water a bit acidic... but i don't know how acidic is good for them. any idea ? they are just not growing much..

[@kenjiro2676]

andrew ysk distilled water is acidic because it is so pure. And cooking acid? What is that?!

[@oldchild527]

I envy you so much!

[@phantomkrel2374]

I feel lucky then since when I got my first few fly traps 2 years ago came with some dead Sphagnum moss, I guess it had some spores that lasted treatment. One stran so far became about 10, of course since I have well water and not city water that could be some factor in how the moss spores grew, or how a strain or 2 possibly came to life.

[@tippysdaddy7468]

Great video, infornative and interesting, thank you. I bought a bale of sphagnum moss last year, it came in a polythene bag and I just leave the bag in the garden and take some out when I need it, seems to work for me. I live in NW England.

Better-Gro Orchid Moss (Chilean sphagnum, probably S. magellanicum) is pretty good at sprouting live sphagnum after a few months. I've got a crapload of it live now (got a lush patch about 4" deep by 8" wide in a food storage container, and a cat litter pan outdoors with some spread over the surface, both planted on a roughly 1" layer of peat and perlite, along with another smaller food storage container started - even got some I'm growing in the water tray of a Drosera binata multifida extrema). Very beautiful, easy moss to grow. I'm hoping to try some of the red S. capillifolium sometime.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Pogue Mahone cool, that awesome!

[@happybuddyperson]

I've gotten red and green sphagnum from the store bought stuff, only if I water it with distilled, dehumidifier, or rain water (under 100ppm tds). I used Canadian and New Zealand sphagnum, too. Both worked.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

***** cool, wonder what I do differently, ove never had a single strand grow

[@happybuddyperson]

How long have you waited for the dead moss to regrow? I've never bought any sphagnum moss from online that is living, or anywhere offline, I've just bought the dead, dried long fibre sphag. The longest I'd wait was about 4-6 months :P I'll eventually get around to making a video about my sphagnum, and how I grow it and resurrect the dead moss. I just sit the dead moss in a pan with no drainage, clean water under 200 ppm tds, and under a t5 bulb, ideally. I've tried other ways, outside, it grew fast but dried up too much and would randomly die. Under more lights the plant grows faster but needs more water. Less light, and the sphagnum turns emerald green and darker, sort of like a spruce in winter even.

[@LucasWills]

Brads Greenhouse & Gardening it won't work on the heat treated stuff. It has to be uncleaned, the brand mosser Lee works for me.

Yeah, the guy in the video forgot to mention the water has to be rain, distilled or RO, otherwise they die. Fertilizing kills them as well.

In nature orchids typically grow in trees. With MOSS!

[@Medietos]

I'm surprised at that deadeed S-moss, having heard it is to give nutrients to te orchid!?Maybe there are differing views and aspects of truth, so that the dead S-moss also won't mould and they give separate nutrition. I picked some wold Sphagnum in our wood here, and it smells horribly from mould. Poor natyre, poor wild berries and trees! Also picked wild fir barm, but it had a thin layer of some green moss (Sw: lav. What's the engl word for lavar, the dry cousin if mosses, often growing on tree trunks, stones, not as moist as mosses?)

[@buzztoaster]

If you use Zoo Meds New Zealand Sphagnum Moss used for reptile habitats. You soak it in water, drain excess water out, place it in a pot and set it in a window. Or somewhere where it can receive direct sunlight It will start to grow again. I have it with my fly traps and is starting to turn a very nice green. Its slow growing took about 3 weeks (give or take) but it is possible to grow Sphagnum moss from dried sphagnum moss.

[@kenjiro2676]

andrew ysk close the lid completely and poke small holes. 1 hole a week on the lid, see if that works. You need to have a very humid environment for these to grow outside your plastic container.

[@benshaw3891]

The reason the besgrow moss might not revive back to life is probably to do with the fact they sell various grades. The 100g brick in the video is classic grade. From what I’ve researched online, the premier is better quality than classic, and is more likely to produce fresh new moss, but they also sell a besgrow supreme as well. Which is even better quality than premier. The higher grades are available in various sizes starting from 150g. They’re available in bails, and seem less compressed than the bricks.

[@ProximaCentauri88]

I'm a newbie and I just put my first sphagnum into a tupperware. I soon discovered that the container has a leak so the water oozes out at the bottom a bit. I have put charcoals as false bottom. Is the crack bad for the moss? Should I transfer the moss into a new no-leak container?

[@Anthony-wg5uj]

where do you buy good quality live sphagnam moss? my area doesn't seem to sell it and I can't find any online place with good reviews.

[@nuggetmaster05]

Anthony Apostoloff I get my moss from bpz zoological. they have lots of different types of moss, including red and green sphagnum. they ship it in humid little bags

[@ikyitching]

Can you collect live moss around your area?

[@meefymoomoo3283]

I don't know if this will help me because my pitcher plant is a whole different genus it's an sarracenia purpurea does anyone know how to help

[@vivimannequin]

I suggest planting it in peat moss with perlite in it

I love your greenhouse sooo much!

[@kenjiro2676]

How can I grow it inside my room by a windowsill? I tried putting a few live pieces of moss on my nepenthes pot and their tips are drying.

KenReyUbeSensei C: put it in a plastic container and use seran wrap as a lid, and keep it moist. Also make sure that it doesn’t get full sunlight, only a little or else it will dry up

[@chalseywilder937]

Oh damn. I put it in direct sun

[@moejem5614]
