Tropfrog Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Do you mean dead or alive spagnum? Br Magnus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pirks Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Can you not flush it through/rinse with safe water? 3 different buckets filled with rain/reverse osmosis/distilled water and check the tds of the water whilst the sphagnum moss is in there until you get a low reading?

Tropfrog Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 That also depends on the water and the species to grow. For nephentes and soft tap water I see no reason to do anything. Br Magnus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
