I have a moss garden that turns brown in some places during the summer. Can this be used on a Moss Garden?

I don't think so, unless your moss is a very deep green color with a tinge of blue. That's the color of this product. I put it on the freezer burn brown spots on my arbor vitae, and the color has a blueness to it that's just a bit different than of the foliage. It blended in ok with my application, but if your moss is more on the sage green color, it wouldn't blend at all.

I used it on evergreens. It would seem to me that it would work on moss but the color might be a little too bright a green for moss color. It is definitely a true green - not a yellow-green or "moss" color. It did work beautifully and with all of the rain we have had it has held up very well - no fading.

Yes! I think it would work well on moss. At first, you may think the green color is unnatural looking, but you can vary the intensity with a light spray and it does fade and blend some with time.

If you toss three cinder blocks on the shelf, it will split and scrape up moss with no problem at all. Just go at the lawn in two or three different angles that cross each other. I had an area that was so matted down it was going bald, as well as moss, and it de-thatched and aerated both areas very well.Three cinder blocks and put the unit on its lowest setting and it will make you happy.

I am not sure but I would think as long as there is some space (dead air) between the plants and the mylar, the plants would be ok. Use it as a sun shade? Make sure the mylar is between the plants and the sun. If not, you will have a solar cooker.

Haven't tried ivy but my guess is it wouldn't be great for that unless the ivy had rotted to brown.

Yes you get more than enough moss to plant it in and a special pot to put everything in. The seller is awesome.

I think it would depend on where it's planted and how much moisture it gets. I live in Blackwell,TX (u can google it & see what zone I live in). I managed to keep it for 2 years and then it died. I felt the sun just cooked it to death even tho I babied it. So maybe it doesn't do well with alot of hard, hot, direct sun.

I live in middle TN & our weather is similar. Put in a large pot , leave it on a porch out of direct light in the summer, and bring it in when the temp starts getting cold (about 45F). It should be okay. I had surgery & wasn't able to bring mine in this winter & it died-my fault. I will get another one in the spring. Also, they are not very big plants. Be sure to google search for the right amount of different soil: high grade potting soil, mulch & I think at least one other. You can buy these at any place that specializes with plants. Just mix them up & plant- DO NOT OVER WATER. Good Luck!

No, I use it all summer and I have water lilies, lotus and other plants. I also have 15 Koi, and it doesn't harm them either. Great bacteria for ponds.

I would use organic sphanagan peat moss mixed with ready to use potting mix

yes but also put down granulated lime at the same time, moss does not like lime. And clover does. if very shady clover may not take clover likes at least half a day sun

No,this is a good time to use it.it will do its job over the winter months.As it rains and snow melts it will clean of stains & mildue & any moss growth.But be aware this will that time.it is not an over night fix.Hope this helps you.I am very happy with my results.

I've used mine for about a month out on the patio. I water every few days when i do my plants. Some spots will turn brown but the dog still uses it. I throw it away after that. don't reuse it.

I have some in an urn indoors that is 6 plus months old and still green. The moss on the porch with filtered sun is beginning to fade slightly.

I sell this moss assortment. I am assuming you mean an aquarium without water. Many of my customers have told me that they planted these in an old aquarium, along with other plants and were very happy with the results. The main thing is to keep the moss lightly damp and do not over-water. Also be sure to keep out of direct sunlight.

Sandy soil can be a vexing problem, but peatmoss and the compost with manure could be the best way to get it back to the way a rose garden need s. Lotsa organic stuff! Should be fine!

it can it can be used just like peat moss in place of soil. It can be used and reused say in pots or containers. I mixed it with my soil because I have clay and it helps to break up the clay and keeps the nutrients and moisture in. I highly recommend it.
