    Day 1: Day 12: I am currently in roughly week 2 of my DSM. The HC (dwarf baby tears) have taken exceptional hold and growth so far, as well as the S. repens. I would like to use the yogurt + moss DSM on my spider wood, but I have been battling white mold growth on it since almost day 1...

    So I was kind of thinking about growing and perhaps selling my own Christmas Moss, does anyone know the proper way to propagate this moss? I thought about filling the bottom of a tote with worm castings, placing the moss on top, and then covering the tote with plastic wrap with the daily...

    I'm new to aquarium plants - I currently have a few anubias attached to driftwood and I'm using liquid fertilizer. I am preparing to order some easy, low-tech tissue culture plants to add to the tank. I like the look of moss on driftwood - the forest look - but I don't want a plant that will...

    Hello. I am doing timelapses of mosses growing for a project. As mosses are sensitive to changes in moisture levels, I am trying to find a way to keep the relative humidity in the grow chamber steady over the weeks or months that will be needed to do the shots.
