manders Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) This is our method of cultivation, just wet in a gravel tray, some outside some in the greenhouse. Dont know what species we have or if they are all the same or not. Edited July 1, 2017 by manders 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigphil1984 Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 I'd like to try and grow the red sphagnum. Or can the green one sometimes turn red?Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koen C. Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 There are more then 200 species around the world. But there is a small selection of species that is rather common so it shouldn't be super hard to determine the species if you know where it comes from. Some Sphagnum is always colored, but my red sphagnum turns completely green after I take cuttings, then turns red again after a couple of months. There are species who never turn red. Also if you decide to take from the wild, if allowed in your country, never take a big amount, you can take a small sample and start from there, without damaging the moss.
