    **I have reupload this again, instead of maintaining two channels, I now focus on single channel.
    I have been waiting to create this for sometime...until recently I found this poly shape container which work perfect for creating the moss wall. In this video, I will be showing you how to making a terrarium moss wall from scratch.
    The long-term maintenance is very simple. Just keep the moss hydrated and humidity level is high. I mist twice a week using RO water. Chlorine might kill the moss. The LED is 10W that turn on for 8 -10 hours daily.

    • @TonysExploration

      So far I never use any fertilizer, make sure to spray/mist from time to time. The water must be chlorine free, the moss very sensitive to chlorine

    Hello! I really hate to bother you, but I'm very new to this and I'm having trouble.. maybe I just don't understand.. but where the heck do you find that soil? There are so many options on amazon and I really don't know what the right one is.
    I'm sorry. 😥

    • @TonysExploration
      @TonysExploration  2 года назад +2

      I can feel you. You will get overwhelmed if you try to research this on Amazon. Here is what I suggest for you.
      Don't worry about the brand. Any aquascaping soil will do. It may be black color or like mine, red color soil.
      Moss is not so particular about the soil preferences. Is all about the moisture. If fact you could use gardening soil as well. The reason I use aquascaping is that these are processed and baked, so you can less worry about pests/fungus carried by gardening soil and pH correct.
      Another good thing about aquscaping soil is granule, it can hold the moisture but at the same time allow air and water to pass through.
      You may want to buy in a smaller quantity. Those aquascaping normally sell in big bags for aquarium purposes.
      For a start , ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Ver 2 would be good enough.
