Thanks for this great video, perfect timing for me! My backyard is covered almost entirely in lush sphagnum moss. (Canada) Do you have any tips for using this moss to make moss poles? I wonder if I would need to dehydrate it completely first, or if I could use the "fresh" moss.

Almost exactly a year ago, I watched your moss pole making tutorial for the first time. I had a regular old trailing golden pothos I wanted to wrangle. This year, I have pothos leaves way bigger than my hand. Not to mention a growing collection of different plants on moss pole. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping me learn how to create a lush jungle in my home.

I am a Flight Attendant ✈️ and right before this trip started I thought and reminded myself to save all the plastic water bottles that I drank and I carried them around for this 4 day trip and I will be putting holes through the caps of the water bottle and putting them on the top of my moss/fern tree mix in my poles to water my poles. 👍

This man got me hooked on the moss pole 🤣 I'm a brand spankin new plant parent too. My poles dry out hella quick here in the NE of US but it's heckin hot this summer and I use about 400w+ of grow lights. I sleep during the day and work overnight, the lights automatically come on at 11pm. Do yourself a favor, DON'T use the plastic "hardware cloth/mesh". Unless you don't mind zip-tying an additional dowel or stake to the back, as shown. The skinnier the pole, the floppier that rubbish plastic gets. I've found adding a piece of plastic sheeting on the back of my moss pole before adding the moss helps with the drying out too. I shoulda done that on day one. I made my own "grow vertical" poles too, using basic products bought from amazon. Worked like a charm! Glad to see Brad hamming it up as usual😂

I've been keeping plants for 10 plus years and that is the secret to indoor gardening, block out all available sunlight and use grow lights. I was awake for 4 days this weekend with the Colombian marching powder so I slept like a baby even with my lights. I only have 1 small philodendron and 3 small Hoyas though because climbing plants can quickly make a mess of the place. As for night growing it will probably make "day" temps cooler and "nights" hotter, will that cause problems? Only way to find out is try. I'm about to try to grow rare plants from the Himalayan Mountain, I'd rather play it safe and not say these will be the only ones in the world growing outside mountain regions but I'll say in my state no one else will have it. Time to start marching!

Thanks for the guidance! Following your tips, I now have 30 mosspoles with some plants nearly touching the ceiling. Time to chop and extend soon :) A tip for those struggling with your watering method: opt for square-shaped bottles! It might sound odd, but it truly makes a difference. I experimented with typical round bottles, like 1L Coca-Cola ones. With them, water either stops dripping entirely at some point or flows too rapidly. It's challenging to find the right balance between too few and too many holes (or different sizes of holes). Square bottles, on the other hand, seem more flexible (flat sides allow more wiggle room when sucking some air in) and better regulate water flow, making it easier to control the amount of water released over time. I don't have 1L Fuji water where I live, but there are other options - I use HDPE 1L bottles with DIN45 caps; it's also very easy to fill due to the wide bottleneck diameter.

Hi Jan! I just made my first moss pole about a month ago. I started with a syngonium. My plant attached itself to the pole in less than 2 weeks and is doing well! All the things we have to take into account when growing plants, humidity, light, temperature, air flow, fertilizer, etc, etc - all of these factors are limiting factors. So that if any one factor is insufficient , it can cause limitations in plant growth and health. So the idea is to try to maximize each one of these factors for the best results. The success of growing on a moss pole , or any other growing technique, for that matter, still depends on each and all other limiting factors. I expect that this is the reason why certain things work in some places for some people and not for others.

Thank you, Jan! I started 4 moss poles after watching your channel. I couldn't figure out why sometimes my water bottles wouldn't flow. I read on line to make a hole in the top of moss pole for the bottle to sit in. After watching this, I added more moss so the bottle just barely touches the moss and success! 👍The watering tips were very helpful. Thanks for another great tutorial! ❤🌱

Good concise guide. I've been using your moss pole method for a few months now and its interesting how quickly you can settle into a regular routine with it. I stand 3 plants at a time in the bath, shower the leaves and lightly moisten the moss, then use the upturned bottle. I have a layer of leca in the bottom of the outer pot so the plants aren't standing in excess water when I put them back. Keep up the good work!! 💚🌱

Thank You Jan (my son is Jan too :) for great video. I started with a plants this year from 2x monstera deliciosa, 2x strelizia nicolai (I love its leaves shape) and philodendron melanochrysum. The last one has a moss pole with spagnum moss basing on your tutorial. You are very happy because of Sydney climate. It is much better than my case. I'm living in central Poland. Since April till half of September it's quite sunny and hot but unfortunately dry... Then we start a heating time so it is also dry. I support plants with humidifier and 1 week ago I put 2500lm of cold led light. It is not profesional light but it is quite cheap. Spagnum moss is too expensive. I though that the best compromise is to mix moss with coco chips or pine chips. They are quite cheap. I bought New Zeland Spagnum Moss dried 100g package. It costs 45 PLN (17 AUD). Has anyone done an experiments with mixing moss and other growing ingredients which keep moisture?

Hello! Nice to see your technique. :) I've been having great success mixing spag moss with fern fiber, 2/3 - 1/3 respectively. Mixing them together with water in a bowl, the mess is minimal. It's a good way to make more poles with less spag - and the roots are all in! Plus I love the smell of fern fibre. :)

I did it..I potted up a couple rooted cuttings onto my first moss pole! I have been fighting it, but I want to see them be happier and grow to a more mature state. I have been subscribed for awhile and have watched you learn and grow as well. I am certain you get a million repeat questions, so this video was fantastic as a big overview and folks can go back and watch other videos to get the extra details. It has been a learning experience for me without having to commit to the moss pole life. Now I am in to try this. Most of my plants are healthy but they just kind of max out on size when in a pot...or the pot size just keeps growing over the years and it is space limiting. Pretty excited and I want to thank your for all your efforts and sharing with us. Plus, the cat is not hurting!!

I just got both of my climbing philodendrons on their first poles! The ring of fire only had a couple inches to tie to the pole, so I didn't have to cut him back. I put a little damp moss in the gap between the plant and the pole so he knows there's something behind him that he can grow in. 😂 I did the same with my pink princess but first I had to chop her - not just to get her onto the pole, but because I sunburned her when I moved. We got a bunch of rain from Hurricane Helene and no one had dried out for weeks, so as soon as I got her to the new place, I put her on the balcony in the sun for just one day... 😬 Along with the poles, I made them their first aeroid mix. I used about 60% of their original potting soil and added chunky perlite, orchid bark, charcoal, and compost. Then everyone came inside for American fall, because it's getting below 65F at night here in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. Coming up on one year with plants this winter! These two were my very first plants.

I stick a ceramic hydro spike with attached water container, the ones that come in different sizes, to the top of the pole, and it is easy to use and helps to keep the moss moist for longer. It does not water the pole completely, but using it i only need to water the pole once or twice a month.

I started using my Monstera deliciosa as a tree. Once it got tall enough(with an oak pole for support) and I stuck all the aerial roots in the pot I still had space in the pot for more plant's. First I planted plant's I don't care too much about. After I saw it is safe I removed the cheap plants and put rare philodendrons in the pot. Now my monstera is a tree. I removed all the lower leafs off course and left only aerial roots which go straight down into the pot.

Hi Jan, I appreciate that you consolidated your moss pole content into this excellent video. I have questions about your El Chocó. I'm Colombian. El Chocó is a forest region between Colombia and Ecuador. I moved to Philadelphia, USA a year ago. I'm trying to make my new home feel like home with tropical plants. This El Chocó Red of yours: 1. How long have you had it? 2. How small was it when you acquired it? 3. Is it growing outdoors, what are the conditions it lives in? I'm using your concept of conditions here. The reason for my questions is I'm new to growing these plants indoors. I've gotten all my plants as 1 leaf seedlings. They are a symbol of me growing roots in this new city. I notice you like to highlight plants when they are big. I find it a great inspiration, but it would be of great benefit to me, and hopefully to others to see how to begin that journey.

I think the El Choco is a newer addition. I want to say he expressed interest in a past video, but he didn't yet have the plant. Check out his videos from the "plant spotlight" series. There are a few other velvet philodendrons in there, and you can see the journey from when he first got the plants to their full sizes. I'd imagine the care for the El Choco would be similar to one of those. If nothing else, it gives you a starting point.

A-MA-ZING video ! I recently started to care about plants and quickly caught the bug. I now have quite a nice collection with some araceas. I've been hesitant about moss poles because they seemed complicated to deal with but that video and the others just flushed those doubts away. I'll start slow, though as advised and see how the plants react to their new environment etc... Anyway, thanks a LOT for your videos and your channel ! Suscribed !

Greetings from Germany! I love your videos and I’m pretty jealous of the weather conditions your have in Sydney. Winters get so cold here. I love this “all in one” video about moss poles behause I just started looking into them and this is really helpful. I also love your vlogs and I enjoy watching AJ as well, she’s a fun person. I have one question, would you put a micans on a moss pole? Mine is about 1,5 meters long and the leaves are getting smaller and smaller. Or should I just propegate it?

I have recently started watching your videos and they are very informative and inspiring. If I may offer one bit of advice it would help us folks that live in the USA and don't use the metric system if you would say or show what the conversion is to inches or feet. A good example is the size of the grid on the hardware cloth for the moss pole. Because you didn't say specifically it is 1/2 inch I bought the wrong size. I know, not your fault for my ignorance but if you had said 10mm or 1/2 inch I wouldn't be trying to get rid of 75 feet of 1/4 inch hardware cloth. It seems an easy and very helpful addition to your videos. Thank you.
