Great for moss pole.
I also used this in a terrarium before. Now days I mainly use it for the moss poles and it works great, the same as sphagnum moss as far as moisture. Plants root into right way.Some people mention that it smells, I like the smell, itâs an earthy smell. The water has a beige color when you squeeze it after soaking, when using it for the plants, I dont care but in the terrarium, I washed it as much as a can with well water then when I had a chance I soaked it in rain water but rain water is not mandatory, I just wanted to do it because I had it.I keep a couple of terrariums for the winter time since gray tree frogs loves to hide in my house plants, all my house plants go outside for the spring, summer and fall. So in the fall, I see these frogs, sometimes I can find them quickly and take them out, other times itâs already too cold, I donât have the heart to dump them out there when itâs like Dec, Jan, you know what I mean.Overall, I do recommend this product and for sure will continue to use it.You can see more on my I G Ufitlinda.

Great for Hermit Crabs!
I have been using this product for my hermit crabs’ moss pits. I originally switched to this product because it contained no dyes and gave the habitat a more natural look. It looks great! This moss comes dried and compressed. I only need a small portion at a time, so I just break a chunk off and store the rest. Then I let it sit in water for a few minutes before squeezing it out and placing it in the tank. This moss holds moisture very well. I spray it with water about once a week, but I could probably go much longer. Over time it seems to settle and compress, so it helps to fluff it up every once in awhile. When it starts looking dirty, you can take it out and rinse it. However, I tend to buy new moss since it’s not very expensive.I have no complaints. This moss fits my use perfectly, and it’s both convenient and affordable.

awesome moss with a nice greenish color which is great for more tropical aesthetics. expands a lot as well, I’ll definitely repurchase for later projects

Seems like it will work!
So I believe its called a “two pack” because each package comes with two blocks of pressed moss. The amount of moss seemed as advertised, but it depends on how much you fluff it up. The plastic tupperware holds 5L and had 1 package (2 thin blocks) and soaked up to overflow the tupperware, and with squeezing out water and fluffing it up would be closer to 10 L of moss.Also put two packages (4 blocks) into a 5 gallon bucket and it almost filled it up while not being fluffed up at all. And I had lots left over!The scent – it smells like moss, earthy, nothing bad.The moss itself was very dirty, had to rinse it a lot! Not as high quality as some orchid moss I’ve used but still seemed good enough.Got this moss for dahlia tuber winter storage so I’m going to see if it will work out!

Perfect for my terrarium!
I love how versatile this moss is! I use a brick for my 2 40-gallon terrariums, and the other for my potted plants to hold in moisture, especially my tropical species! When using for my terrariums, I have to soak and pick through for any small stems or pieces not needed in my turtles’ enclosure’s. Compared to other brands and different types of sphagnum moss, this one is best, especially for the amount and price! All of the other ones I have tried have way too many stems and various scrap pieces that can be harmful to your reptiles! All moss will contain some stem and unwanted extra material, but I have never had a big issue with these. Never had any with mold, unlike many others I have seen or received! One brick soaked for 15 mins will fill up both of my 40-gallon terrariums about 2 to 3 inches. Just enough for my burrowing babies to have a nice home that is safe and sanitary! I love how it can be reused several times before discarding and getting new! A good rinse under hot water and squeezed to damp, I reuse it about three time. I like to do a deep clean about once a month, so one brick lasts all together around 4 months!

Great value for your money, just don’t rush it like I did!
I’m a big fan of this plume moss! I love using it to accent my herp and invertebrate’s enclosures (I currently have it as a top substrate layer in my garden snail, white’s tree frog, crested gecko, and fire skink’s enclosures), and a little goes a long way! I still have probably about half of it left. However, just make sure to be patient and let it hydrate all the way on its own. I’m used to smushing up and breaking down compressed cocofiber blocks so that I don’t have to wait as long to add them to my enclosures, but you don’t want to do that with this! Maybe it’s common sense in retrospect, but by doing that with my moss, I just ended up breaking it all down into tiny little fluffy bits, when longer strands definitely would have been easier to work with, and looked prettier.Live and learn, though! I’ll definitely be ordering this again to use for my pets, and it works great for giving them a nice natural ‘carpet’ to walk on, as well as helping to hold humidity in the lower layers of substrate.

Dirty: you get the whole forest floor
I ordered this because it was shipped to me quicker than other options. It was cheap, but I’m not sure the value was worth getting. Once re-hydrated, you’ll have the job of washing dirt, tree needles, and random forest bits out of the moss. It doesn’t seem like it got any cleaning at all before being compressed and packed. As others have noted, I found it to smell bad: fishy. At about double the price, I would have happily paid for clean moss.

Ottima qualità ed enorme volume, lo ricomprerò sicuramente. L’odore è uguale a tutti gli altri, sa un pò di sottobosco.

Muy bien compactado, crece mucho al mojarlo. La calidad es buena y trae pocos residuos.No sirve para propagar ya que está muerto, no vuelve a crecer.
Amazon Customer –
Jag köpte den här för att propagera mina Pothossticklingar men tyvärr blev alla de som var i mossan dåliga och behövde ställas i vatten.Gav 5 stjärnor för att vara rättvis mot säljaren då jag använde det här till något som det inte var menat för.

Cones in a side block lime a brick. Pull or cut away what you need and soak in water. A little slice goes a long, long way…!Easy store without mess.Makes my cuttings grow quickly and they flourish. The only moss I buy
