HelenaI have a few pots and containers of sphagnum moss & was happy today to see three honey bees had found one of the pots and were using it to safely drink some water. <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/bees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bees</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sphagnum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sphagnum</a>

Violet MadderOne thing I definitely want to try, is cultivating live sphagnum moss! It grows slowly, but it's very useful stuff even before it's broken down into peat (which takes years and years).It likes very soft acidic water though, so the 8.2 pH & 320ppm GH stuff out of the tap here is probably not suitable.I'm also very curious about harvesting condensation from the inside surfaces of a greenhouse, to use as a source of more or less distilled water.RO systems use up a lot of salts etc and don't seem like a very sustainable long term solution. I haven't looked into it deeply though. I have next to $0 budget so that sort of thing is right out.Sadly most of the places selling live sphagnum have no idea what species they're using, which bugs me.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sphagnum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sphagnum</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/liveSphagnum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#liveSphagnum</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sphagnumMoss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sphagnumMoss</a>

HelenaYes it’s true, we do have several (lots?) of pots of sphagnum moss around the house & garden. Mostly they are for growing our insectivorous plants. But as the moss grows pretty well it’s in some extra pots of just sphagnum too. I’m not sure if the red sphagnum is a different variety or just a variation on the moss we have. It’s very pretty either way. Edit: there are three species of sphagnum in the photo. thanks <a href="https://ecoevo.social/@kaarne" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@kaarne</a> for the info (in comments)<a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mosstodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sphagnum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sphagnum</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/moss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moss</a>
