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.

Yes, amend your soil of any rocks or dried grasses, at this time when ground is level and ready for planting,spread in your fertilizer, I used this product as some of the reviews gave a good result. But, I found that they soil here has a soft clay so this year I stared to use a Compost Fertilizer, Buffaloloam made from buffalo pooh, It's very rick, no smells and dark dark coloring. and everything in this garden looks like a golf course, The green light a fast result, within days,but, seemed to only have a speedy set to a light coloring. With the Buffalo loam compost, it's great for every living thing, except humans..Please feel free to ask any questions .if I have not answered your question. English is my second language and the English has been a challenge all the years. Brenda

Hmmm - don't see why that wouldn't work - used the natural inside and out - so far no issues in a TN summer sun, but am aware I will need to refinish every year. Hopefully this helps.

I've used it on wooden items outside, but not in the full sun. I puts a beautiful finish on the wood, and may be worth treating every other year.

I had no luck with the moss I bought for my terrariums. No matter how I cared for it, it did not survive. Sorry I can't be more help!

yes you can just put them on rocks, moss or just glass jar if you like. Either spray with water bottle every couple of days or soak in water for 20-30 minutes once a week. You will know when they need water by how green. I always turn mine upside down after soaking for a little bit so no water just sits inside them. Enjoy!

You will have to scrape the moss up to bare soil and scratch rake the soil before sprinkling the clover seed,Good Luck.

Don't make the solution any stronger than called for. The grass will get brown, but should come back. When spraying put on stream so you can get to the root. Don't just spray up in the air, such as lifting up the wand and higher than I or 2 inches from grass.

Well I don't really know since I was under the impression that preserved moss is still alive? But to answer your question, it is dried upon arrival, and then you get it wet to make it plush and green again.

I have 2 closed terrariums made with this assortment of live moss. It hasn't happened to me. Must have been shipped with dormant larvae that hatched. The bugs shouldn't hurt anything, I don't think.

As a planter just for the moss? Line with pea gravel, then a layer of dried sphagnum moss and then soil. Mosses are non-vascular meaning they have no water transport system beyond osmosis (this is why the never grow tall) so they need to be moist and out of direct sunlight. I spray mine with a spray bottle for moisture.

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.

Sorry, my moss began drying up, even though I sprayed it along with the plant, and I finally tossed it and put some shells in the hanger with the plant. I'd suggest either getting in touch with Hinterland or a local florist shop ... good luck!

The miracle grow should be fine as long as it's diluted correctly. As for putting them in the plant pots, you may have a problem there. Most houses have a low humidity and these mosses enjoy a high humidity. For the price, it may be worth it to give it a shot. I'd put a different moss in each pot and see which one does the best. Then order more of that specific kind to fill the other pots. Hope this helps...

Hi Anthony ... first and foremost, remember that I'm a novice at growing air plants ... a glass terrarium should work great, but I'm not certain about the moss, and you obviously want to avoid anything that will keep them "moist" ... I'm presuming this means any type of soil. I submerge mine, per instructions, once a week for two hours, then let them dry another two hours on a paper towel. That seems to work great. They're growing and doing great. :-)

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.

Hello, Jay! I've ordered moss, too, and my best advice is to contact the vendor you bought it from. Mosses don't need to be planted in soil. They don't have roots like other plants. You should be able to keep it alive by misting it and keeping it in a plastic bag, but again, I urge you to contact the vendor. Nice gift! Joyce
