💡 Tips for Best Results:
Pre-soak moss in warm water to re-hydrate and expand the fibers fully. Pack moss loosely around roots to allow airflow and maintain moisture balance. Keep moss consistently moist — never allow it to fully dry out. Flush with fresh water occasionally to preserve healthy pH. Plan to refresh moss every 1–2 years or when breakdown occurs.
