Spagnum FAQ:

1."I found some twigs (or leaves, pine needles etc) in my moss, is that normal?" Yes that's completely normal. Sphagnum moss may contain some debris such as small twigs and/or other forest debris. This is harmless and occurs naturally. We do our best to groom the moss, but over-grooming can cause the moss to be shredded into pieces.

2. "One side of the bag looks brown, is that normal?" Yes, totally normal. Please note- most of the photos depict Sphagnum moss acclimated and in use. The Sphagnum will arrive in a ziplock bag, and some bits may be laying flat, flipped upside-down etc. Sphagnum inside of a bag does not look identical to Sphagnum planted and flourishing. Sphagnum, like all moss, is green on the top only- the underside will be brown. It should be planted/placed with the brown part facing down.

3. "How often should I water it?" This really depends on how it's being used. Sphagnum is a very functional moss, with many different potential applications. In general, if you are using it on it's own, in an open air terrarium or pot, watering every 2 to 3 days should be enough. If it looks and feels wet to the touch, it doesn't need watering. If it feels dry, give it a good misting.
