Original Soil Mix for Moss Terrariums - Approx. 0.5 Liters

Thank you for viewing.
This listing is for a custom soil blend made from surplus soil purchased for my hobby of home gardening.
I also have other gardening soils listed, so please check them out under #RiceGardeningSoil.

Product Description
■ Soil for Moss Terrariums
This is a base soil blend formulated for moss terrariums.
How about using it for planting moss, which is essential for terrariums?

■ Contents: Trial size approx. 0.5 liters / approx. 300g

■ About the Soil Used in the Blend
Soil suitable for planting moss is said to be:
- Clean
- High in water retention and drainage
- Granular
- Low in nutrients
- Slightly acidic
Based on these conditions, I have blended four types of soil.

[Hard Akadama Soil (Fine Granule)]
A slightly acidic gardening soil with high breathability, drainage, and water retention, and very little nutrient content. Its hardness ensures the granules do not easily break down.

[Vermiculite]
This is a neutral soil made from pulverized, heat-treated mica, which enhances drainage and water retention.

[Peat Moss (Unadjusted)]
A soil with high breathability and water retention. As it is an unadjusted pH type, it tends to be more acidic.

[Rice Husk Charcoal (Homemade)]
This is homemade charcoal made from rice husks provided by a farmer.
It has the role of adsorbing waste products. Since charcoal is alkaline, I blended it with the aim of neutralizing the acidity of the peat moss and maintaining a slightly acidic pH.

*The soil has been moistened during blending. When using, please add a small amount of water and use it at your preferred consistency.
*This soil lacks sufficient stickiness and is not suitable for making moss balls.

Images 6-9 show examples of its use in my 60cm aquarium at home. While I don't create moss terrariums myself, I do create imoriums for keeping Japanese fire-bellied newts. I have planted various mosses in this soil, mainly Hypnum plumaeforme, Thuidium delicatulum, and Lepisorus thunbergianus.

The soil will be packed in a resealable bag and then placed in a shipping box or bag. Shipping will be via Nekoposu.
*Only the item shown in image 5 will be sent.
