3.6OZ Premium Sphagnum Moss for Indoor Plants, 4 QT Orchid Moss Potting Mix - Natural Sphagnum Moss for Succulents, Carnivorous(Sarracenia), Monstera, Terrarium Substrate & Reptile Habitats

I added this premium Sphagnum moss to my orchid, ariods, monstera, and carnivorous plant setups and the difference is night and day. It holds moisture perfectly without staying soggy, promotes healthy root growth, and looks beautiful as a top dressing. The fibers are long, clean, and pesticide-free – no weird smell or debris like cheaper brands. My plants are happier and growing faster already. Super easy to rehydrate and use for propagation or potting mixes. If you’re serious about indoor plants, this is a must-have!

I bought this to re pot a plant after I discovered one of my plants had root rot. This stuff is great a little off the block goes a long way in the pot and my plant seems to be on the mend thanks to proper potting medium so bonus.

This product worked well for repotting an orchid plant that was starting to die. I only used a small amount of the moss. It absorbed water quickly, expanded, and seems to be working! Good amount of moss for the money.

I grow most of our vegetables and herbs year around, and discovered that the soil in my pots was more alkaline than it should be. Most of the plants I grow require soil on the acidic side for microbes to break down nutrients into a usable form. My tomatoes and bell peppers were developing yellow spot on the leaves that I found out could be caused from lack of nutrients. Since I regularly supply these plants with nutrients, I knew that lack of nutrients wasn't the problem. With more research, I found out that microbes in the soil must break down nutrients in the soil in order for the plants to absorb them. For these microbes to do their job, the soil PH should be 6.2 to 6.8. My soil was 7.2. Since Sphagnum moss helps to lower the PH of the soil, I bought this product, and initially, wasn't impressed by the size of the package - it was really small. So, keeping an open mind, I put the small block in a 3 gallon tub and filled it half full of water. Within a couple of minutes, the block began to grow and continued growing. I moved it to a 5-gallon bucket and added more water. It continued to grow until it filled the bucket, but still, it was not all hydrated. So, I moved what was hydrated back into the 3-gallon tub and filled it. I added more water to the bucket, and this product filled the bucket by the time it was fully hydrated. So, my first suggestion would be to cut this block into at least 4 sections if you don't need a lot at one time. This sphagnum moss has very long fibers. It would work well for plants that grow in moss or possible for starting seedlings if mixed with perlite and vermiculite. This moss would also be excellent for air layering which is used to root cuttings on hard wood plants or trees to produce new plants. This is one purpose I plan to use it for. For my general purpose to mix it with soil, I have been breaking up the fibers to make them smaller in order to mix them into the soil. This should lower the PH in the soil and eventually the fibers will break down, but I prefer the sphagnum peat moss that is already broken into smaller pieces as it is easier to mix into the soil. I did find a few twigs in this moss, but not too bad for the amount of moss produced in this quantity. Personally, I wouldn't buy this moss again for my purposes, but it would work great for those growing orchids or other plants that grow in moss. At any rate, lowering the PH for my tomatoes, peppers, and even the veggie greens has had some exceptional results. My tomatoes are consistently producing much larger tomatoes and my pepper plants have a multitude of new flowers and developing peppers. I hope this review is helpful for you.

As others have said, this is a good value, but the quality is a bit lacking. There are bits of other plant debris in there, though not enough to be a huge problem for me. I have had some mold, some swampy smell, and some mystery volunteer plants pop up in my grow bins using this moss. Mold happens. Mystery plants are possibly a bonus? (They're probably weeds, but a girl can hope! I have them isolated in a bin together to see what they grow up to be.) The other reviews stating that this looks a bit more "broken down" are not wrong. I have bought other moss that was less compressed and in much longer tougher strands, but to be honest the weathered moss is easier to work with if you're just putting it in a prop box because you don't have to disentangle roots from long strands of moss and worry about hurting the plants you're pulling out. All in all, I don't regret the choice to buy this, but if you want long, tough strands of moss you should look elsewhere. For the price it's fine, but I still can't give 5 stars because of all the contaminates!

My outdoor plants love it and are looking so healthy.

I really was not a fan of this sphagnum moss. Personally I think it was very poor quality a lot of sticks and debris. It also had a funky smell and seemed to get moldy faster then other brand I have used. The one plus was it was super cheap. The size was nice, but I prefer quality over quantity. The color seemed light but it also had a grey tint I wasn't to happy about and just with all the extra little pieces of debris it seemed very poor quality. Not cleaned well at all. Idk if you use it for something that is not that important it maybe worth it , but I wouldn't suggest using it for plants or reptiles at all!

My favorite moss for many things, monstera moss poles to rooting cuttings in tubs, expand to quite a bit of moss. I’m a repeated customer.

Ich war beim Auspacken erst etwas skeptisch, weil die Packung wirklich sehr klein war und ich dachte: „ das ist aber wenig.“ Nach dem Einweichen kam dann die große Überraschung: Das Moos hat sich extrem ausgedehnt und am Ende hatte ich mehr als einen ganzen Putzeimer voll. Ich konnte damit insgesamt sechs Pflanzen eintopfen. Ich hatte vorher gelesen, dass manche Probleme mit Schimmel hatten, deshalb habe ich das Moos genau kontrolliert. Bei mir war absolut kein Schimmel vorhanden. Es war sehr eng gepresst, sauber und hat sich nach dem Einweichen super aufgelöst. Die Qualität überzeugt mich total und die Ergiebigkeit ist wirklich beeindruckend. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Produkt und kann es auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Lebt im Terrarium gut weiter, nichts zu beanstanden.

Very Good value and quality also very fast delivery service

Top Pflanzen wachsen super darin habe nur unterschätzt wie sehr das im Wasser aufgeht

All cool and stuff until… I have soaked it, made few moss poles, left the rest in the bedroom on the cupboard and after just over a week it got mouldy. Product contaminated. I’ve had to take it out of all my moss poles (won’t risk it) and whole load of moss went into the compost bin. Moneys wasted compost bin happy… but that’s now the purpose I bought it for..
