Propagating MOSS Collected from the Wild || How to propagate and find moss - Guide

[@circa134]

Remember to harvest sustainably so you can come back next year or other people can also harvest from that patch, don’t take more than 30 percent of each patch and smooth down the edges. Moss grows very slowly so if you need more moss just spread out you collection to multiple patches instead of taking a lot from one so all of the patches can grow back and not destroy a patch of moss.

[@stancexpunks]

I’m wondering what to do with these big patches of cushion moss I found on my neighborhood Because I know they will die by summer as I live in Southern California. The majority of it already is brown and it’s still winter. But they seemed to have grown really big due to a lot of recent rainfall last month. I want to save the moss and put it in controlled environment until next winter and put it back, but don’t know if it’s the right thing to do. I had a bunch of moss growing in my front yard last year but the entire thing died by summer so I know this will happen for sure with the moss I found in the landscaping. Also I think it’ll be destroyed by landscapers when they come to maintain that area. I live in suburbia with everything looking very manufactured so wild moss isn’t a thing here which is why I want to save them so badly. Seeing these huge patches all brown makes me so sad

[@circa134]

honestly moss is hardy, it can hibernate until the rain comes so removing it will do more harm that good

[@robstockton2463]

@@stancexpunks Brown moss isn’t necessarily dead moss. It is acclimatized to its environment, so I’d recommend leaving it alone.

Thread like white fungus attacked in my moss propagation box. My moss is looking like slighty white in colour. What should I do?

lovely variety of mosses. thank you for sharing

[@brianbassett4379]

I collect moss, add some water and buttermilk, spin it in a blender, and then paint/spray it on a surface and let it grow. If it's in a dry location indoors or out I spritz it a few times a day until it is established.

Hello! I went moss hunting today with one of my little sisters to set up a mason jar terrarium. Will moss grow with a little bit of dirt and will flowers also grow with the moss there?

[@udaydas6291]

Moss are beautiful in the wild.

[@rachelparis2892]

This is so amazing! I am excited to get to that next level! Have you had to deal with any pests due to collecting moss from nature? I have a coffee table-sized terrarium that I would love to introduce native mosses to (as there is an abundance to collect from here in the PNW) - but I am afraid of bringing pests inside. Please and Thank you!

[@brickellvoss7739]

check out the video: How to Propagate Your Own Moss by SerpaDesign. This person using that persons method of propagation, that video goes into more detailed explanation and he does address pests and how to sterilize the moss. I'm also in the PNW and I've got quite a few moss boxes going and looking to get most of my yard covered in moss! Moss is also so easy to plant in-between! You can make moss slurries too, some people use beer or buttermilk or yogurt, things with yeast and probiotics!

I liked seeing si many varieties. Unfortunately is been difficult to watch. The names of moss are not shown for more than a second. I will highly suggest to leve them more. I really annoying to go back several times or needing to stop every time the video just to be able to read the names. All on super speed here. I do appreciate the information, but....

Sadly this video wont help me.. living in the middle of Europe. Only mosses i can collect aren't good for rainforest ecosystems like closed terrariums. sad.

[@margooz1852]

Fortunately for you, in Europe they have diverse plant shops compared to other places in the world.

[@tic857]

Then adjust your terrarium set up. Im in North America with 4 seasons. My moss grows. Collect various ones and put them in your home and see which survives. Its best to replicate their growing conditions. For example I have sphagnum, haircap and thyme moss that grow near me. Spagnum is boggy and acidic, I found haircap nearby under a vociferous tree which probably means acidic, if I collect haircap, I can probably propagate it with the sphagnum and very humid. The thyme grows under trees dappled sun, soil moist, bits of limestone and concrete and lots of decay wood. I would place it in a container that would be more neutral or alkaline.

[@Pantyseller1]

It won't help anyone! He pulls all the moss in a patch, which is a big no no. You suppose to only take half, so it can grow back quickly. The moss he took, now will take a few years to grow back

[@circa134]

Honestly when I harvest moss I onl take a small coin sized piece if it’s a relatively small patch or under 10 percent if it huge and smooth it down

[@riyad8862]

Sorry but your “meowing” music in the beginning and then in the middle is very annoying, I had to mute. When you think of moss it automatically sets you in the mood for beautiful nature-something zen and tranquil, and you had that partially with piano music, so why ruin it with electronics and not to have the piano all the way ?
