This review is specifically in the context of growing orchids. It is the only moss I will use for my orchids now, after trying many brands over the years. It is very, very good quality, clean, minimal debris, long, wide strands of quality moss. Excellent water retention because of how full and thick the strands are. I have never yet received a bad batch. Instructions for preparing for storage: It is not ideal to take strands directly from the dry block for use, as they will break and tear and make a mess. The best way to prepare this moss is to hydrate the entire block once you receive it in a sink of water. This will take about 30 minutes. Once the block is completely separated, drain the water and gently squeeze all the water from the moss. lay the moss out on a flat surface to completely dry. I put it out in the sun and it took about eight hours to completely dry. Then you can put it away and it will be ready to use whenever you need it.

I watched a lot of YouTube orchid videos and most, when they mentioned the brand of sphagnum moss, they used Besgrow Premium NZ Sphagnum Moss. Upon receiving my order from Amazon, I was impressed with the quality of it. Prior to Besgrow, the sphagnum moss I'd bought was of a much lower quality and usually had a lot of hard material included in the moss. Besgrow sells a very clean sphagnum moss, and I've found very little "junk" that gets past their processing. I keep Besgrow Sphagnum Moss at all times in my box of orchid barks, mixes, and other potting materials. The old saying "you get what you pay for" is so true when buying sphagnum moss. You can find deals only that are a bit cheaper, but unless you've had a solid recommendation from someone who uses it you're likely to get an inferior grade of moss. Besgrow Sphagnum Moss you can trust to be a superior product and I highly recommend it!

This product is top notch! I needed some high quality sphagnum moss to use as a substrate component for my orchids. I keep phalaenopsis, oncidium, paphiopedilum, and many more exotic kinds. Some of them needed repotting this spring. I have epiphytes and terrestrial orchids. Every orchid I have is in a unique mix that is optimized to give each plant the correct amount of air, moisture, and nutrients. Some of my orchids are grown semi-hydro style, potted in solely LECA (in gravel form, Turface). But not all of them do well in that medium, which is where this sphagnum moss comes in. I use: bark, moss, lava rock, coconut chips, charcoal, turface, sometimes perlite, all in different combinations. Sphagnum moss is a major component of my mixes. It provides excellent water retention, aeration when packed loosely, and some antimicrobial properties. This specific moss is very high quality. If you check out the Spagmoss website they explain how the moss is sourced, and it shows in the quality of the product. They hand pick it from cultivated moss fields in New Zealand and bring it to processing centers via helicopter where it is cleaned and air dried carefully. The strands are intact, they are very long and fluffy. The brick form it comes in expands immensely upon soaking with water. I only needed a big handful of it dry, to pot up 5 different orchids (mixed with other substrate amendments). To easily pot up an orchid, I would recommend soaking the moss in a small bucket and then squeezing it gently to remove most of the water so it is damp. Working on a tray is best so you can mix your substrate up and not make a big mess. Wearing some gloves helps. Mix some pieces of moss in with your other amendments and carefully fill in space in and around the root ball. If you need a long lasting high quality sphagnum moss for orchid potting or any other purpose look no further. This stuff is amazing!

Expensive, but best moss out there that I’ve found to date.

I love this moss because it reliably regenerates into fresh green LIVE moss. I have a very large pinguicula collection and a few terrariums, so this "feature" is desirable and it's a sustainable option - just one pack to get started, then an endless supply of moss for more projects. For best results, rehydrate with distilled or RO water, keeping it just on the wet side of moist, and blast it with very bright light. My fastest growing batches are always the containers that sit about 6" below a 100w equivalent, 5k white LED flood light bulb. I don't even need to cover it to retain humidity. It starts greening up in about 2-3 weeks (you can tell it's regenerating because it's a more vivid green than algae is). In about a month the new first tufts are growing in and in 2-3 months it is grown out a lush layer of long fiber strands. I also find having live sphagnum in my propagation boxes is more effective - less inclined to mold and rot my cuttings and I suspect it helps with gas exchange for the cuttings' tiny baby roots. The Besgrow spagmoss in the compressed packs will not regenerate - it must be these loose bales. For some reason, I haven't been able to regenerate other brands, either. I think the vacuum and pressure for the compressed boards eliminate all living cells, while these loose bales are just dehydrated, so the cells just go dormant until rehydrated. Highly recommend for carnivorous plants, terrariums, moss poles, and top dressing for moisture-loving plants. The pics included is my ping nursery, a project I just did about a month ago for my leaf pullings. The moss was taken from a bale I got a year ago and you can see it is still able to come back.

Yes, it’s compressed and will plump up so that it is a larger amount than it appears at first here. But for the price it just seems a bit much. I did comparisons and this seller is selling for the least expensive at least right now ($22.15)compared to other sources. I figured if I did photos of measurements here, at least the size won’t surprise you as it did me when the small package arrived. It’s 9” length x 5” height x 3 1/2” width. The color is pretty nice - looks legit. Yes, it’s true that it has little sticks and straw in it - you can see a little stick in the last photo. However, when I had purchased some before, it had a bit of this too.

I use this high quality moss for all All 55 of my orchids. I love the long fluffy strands; I find the moisture level stays equalized in pot instead of creating dry pockets which I find happens in the small short magnum moss (different brands).

Great moss, come in really tight packaging. Do not rip it apart in an open area. Tear apart in a small container and wet it as you need. Takes only a little bit of time to get it wet and ready for use.

Product is very good and genuine, in time received.

水苔の最高ランクだと思います。 品質は申し分なしで保水力もありまとまりのある水苔です。 ビカクシダの板付けのほか、発芽用土としても使用しています。 ビカク用のレビューは多くありますので、主に発根用としてのレビューをします。 通常の用土よりも保水力が高いので発芽には最適ですが、根張りを考えると発根後に通常用土への移動をお勧めします。 もしくは、通常用土の上に薄く敷いてその上に種子を置くと良いと思います。 成長後にハサミで苔を切断できますので薄ければ問題は特にありません。 まとまりも良く、少量から使用できます。 商品到着後から使用までの間に2〜3時間水に入れてほぐすことをおすすめします。 その際にベンレートやメネデールを少量混ぜると更に安定した発芽促進になります。

This product is really good and look so natural. I first had Peat Moss mixed with Perlites in my pots but I noticed how quick it started to grow algaes in on the top. I didn't liked that so I switched for a more natural product like this one. The package does look really small when you get it but that is because the sphagnum is dry and compressed. But, once you dive it into water, it become huge. I actually managed to fill five small/medium sizes pots with one package. I have read in one review that one guy apparently had gnats inside of his Sphagnum. Well, I did check my own sphagnum carefully and can assure that nothing was moving inside of that. I definitly will buy this product again when I will need it.

The moss arrived well packed. The quality is excellent
