Soil: choose the acid soil mixed with peat soil and rotten leaves; water: keep the humid growth environment; light: it likes the semi shade environment and avoid direct sunlight; propagation method: it can be seeded with ramets, buds or spores. Ramet propagation is to separate the plants from the mother, and plant in the high humidity environment, survive for a week, while bud propagation is to separate the adventitious buds from the growth.

Growth habits

Generally, it needs about 20 ℃, and the optimum temperature is above 25 ℃, so the growth is better. In winter, it is necessary to move into the room for breeding. Half cloudy. A certain amount of scattered light is needed. I like the dark and humid growing environment. The most suitable season for growth is in spring and autumn.

Breeding methods

Illumination

Bryophytes like half shade and avoid direct sunlight. They usually grow in the shade. In summer, sunshade measures should be taken. At the same time, it also needs enough astigmatism. Generally, the sunshine in the morning can do a good job in ventilation.

Moisture

Moss likes humidity, maintains moist growth environment, uses spray to maintain the high air humidity. Water thoroughly and avoid ponding.

Soil

Mosses like acid soils. Generally choose peat soil mixed with rotten leaves.

Container

Generally, semi closed glass containers are selected. Not only can we enjoy bryophytes better, but also it is suitable for the growth of bryophytes.

How mosses reproduce

Bryophytes can be seeded and propagated by ramets, buds or spores. In mass production, they are usually propagated by ramets or buds.

Ramet propagation

Generally, it is carried out in the month with high temperature, precipitation and air humidity. Select the acid soil as the propagation medium, carefully separate the mother, and then plant several plants or in groups in the prepared medium, maintain the high humidity growth environment, and survive about a week later. After a period of time, it can reproduce and grow naturally.

Method of propagation of moss

Bud propagation

In the period of vegetative and reproductive growth, many adventitious buds grow between leaves and branches. These adventitious buds can develop adventitious roots and become a complete plant. Generally in the bryophyte growing season, select robust adventitious buds, cut them off from the mother, and plant them separately, so that they can grow into independent plants.
