Place the proper amount of spikes beneath the surface of the soil as close to the roots as possible. Use a pencil or similar object. Cover the holes and water the plant on a normal basis for the first seven to twelve days for the polymer to fully absorb water. Watering reductions and rates can then be established. Some varieties of water-loving plants may require one to two more spikes per container size.

Plant life saver

I use moss in my garden ICU to encourage root growth for almost dead transplants and large hardwood cuttings (and also for air-layering). Admittedly this product is pricey but it works very well and could be reused. I tried other store-bought moss but none worked as well as Oregon Green Moss - that could be because it's fresher. By the way, I learned this technique from Peter Chan, a bonsai master and owner of Herons Bonsai.

Water retaining moss

It;s really hard to find a product like this locally so I was very glad to find it on your site. I use it to line my hanging baskets to keep them from drying out quickly. This works great. Thanks for having it in stock!

Really neat looking

There were no reviews when i bought, so i risked it. Glad I did! This moss comes dried in a compacted cube, is tan and pale green. Adds a great wild look to my hanging baskets and arrangements.
