💡 Tips for Best Results:
Always pre-soak the moss in warm water to re-hydrate and expand fibers. Pack loosely around orchid roots for best moisture balance and airflow. Maintain consistent moisture — avoid allowing moss to fully dry out. Flush occasionally with fresh water to preserve healthy pH levels. Plan to re-pot every 1–2 years or when moss shows signs of breakdown.
