Our pellets are made from full fat unpasteurized goat milk straight from the udder, mixed with red clay and dehydrated at 70 degrees. Our fertiliser pellets are perfect for terrariums, living walls, moss gardens exterior as interior.

Why is goat milk the best fertiliser for moss and other terrarium plants?
This is our secret to the beautiful moss we grow in our moss nursery, our ferns and succulents and orchids and other rock garden plants, in fact, our whole farm!
Like all plants, moss needs nitrogen, either gleaned from the soil and substrate or from water uptake. If your moss doesn’t get enough nutrients from rainfall or substrate a mild, organic fertilizer, such as one containing lactic acid from goat milk which non-protein nitrogen content is usually 5-8 % of total nitrogen. Signs your moss needs fertilization include spotty growth and poor color.

You will be receiving Pohlia nutans Moss in a package bag in a padded envelope large pieces of moss and a few small ones. Mosses can remain alive even during periods of drought, resuming photosynthesis when moistened again by rain or even fog. All you have to do is follow the video, and spray generously the moss when it looks dry and let it have some sun, no need for full sun which makes them great indoor plants too.

The upper part of stems is reddish, with brown rhizoids on the lower part of stems. The spearhead shaped leaves are larger (about 4.5 mm long) and more crowded towards the tops
of shoots, and smaller below (about 2.5 mm long) forming beautiful thick carpets.
The nerve ceases just below the leaf tip, and the leaves lack a border.
Short-leaved branches often protrude above the cushions.
Horizontal or pendulous capsules 3 mm long-form frequently have vivid red Setae which vary in length but may be quite long, and bright green capsules which really make them stand out from the crowd. The setae
may persist after the capsules have disappeared.
How To Grow
moss can be grown in a moist terrarium, aquarium, or in small plastic boxes on the windowsill. These locations allow for better-controlled growth conditions and modifications to allow as much expansion as possible. A good source of light and some added CO2 can kick liverworts’ growth rate to an accelerated new level.
The most effective method to cultivate moss is the parent plant should be divided into smaller pieces and then be tied down to a mesh or surface with thread or fishing string. Doing so will ensure that the flora remains attached.

Historically, three taxonomic bryophyte groups have been recognized and now represent the three main divisions in this group: Marchantiophyta (liverworts), Bryophyta (mosses) and Anthocerotophyta (hornworts). The three main groups have diversified throughout their evolutionary history, making it difficult to identify the specific characters separating these three groups.
The status of bryophytes as the oldest living land plants is widely accepted
