besgrow Sphagnum Moss New Zealand AAA Grade 150g Bale (12L)

Product is very good and genuine, in time received.

水苔の最高ランクだと思います。 品質は申し分なしで保水力もありまとまりのある水苔です。 ビカクシダの板付けのほか、発芽用土としても使用しています。 ビカク用のレビューは多くありますので、主に発根用としてのレビューをします。 通常の用土よりも保水力が高いので発芽には最適ですが、根張りを考えると発根後に通常用土への移動をお勧めします。 もしくは、通常用土の上に薄く敷いてその上に種子を置くと良いと思います。 成長後にハサミで苔を切断できますので薄ければ問題は特にありません。 まとまりも良く、少量から使用できます。 商品到着後から使用までの間に2〜3時間水に入れてほぐすことをおすすめします。 その際にベンレートやメネデールを少量混ぜると更に安定した発芽促進になります。

This product is really good and look so natural. I first had Peat Moss mixed with Perlites in my pots but I noticed how quick it started to grow algaes in on the top. I didn't liked that so I switched for a more natural product like this one. The package does look really small when you get it but that is because the sphagnum is dry and compressed. But, once you dive it into water, it become huge. I actually managed to fill five small/medium sizes pots with one package. I have read in one review that one guy apparently had gnats inside of his Sphagnum. Well, I did check my own sphagnum carefully and can assure that nothing was moving inside of that. I definitly will buy this product again when I will need it.

This review is specifically in the context of growing orchids. It is the only moss I will use for my orchids now, after trying many brands over the years. It is very, very good quality, clean, minimal debris, long, wide strands of quality moss. Excellent water retention because of how full and thick the strands are. I have never yet received a bad batch. Instructions for preparing for storage: It is not ideal to take strands directly from the dry block for use, as they will break and tear and make a mess. The best way to prepare this moss is to hydrate the entire block once you receive it in a sink of water. This will take about 30 minutes. Once the block is completely separated, drain the water and gently squeeze all the water from the moss. lay the moss out on a flat surface to completely dry. I put it out in the sun and it took about eight hours to completely dry. Then you can put it away and it will be ready to use whenever you need it.

The moss arrived well packed. The quality is excellent
