SUBMERGING

Small 4": 5 minutes once a week

Big 6": 10 minutes every 2 weeks

​

I like to be submerged ¾ of my moss ball in room temperature drinkable water every 2 weeks indoors. If outdoor consider once a week. if you collect water from rain occasionally, I'll thrive. 

While submerging splash or spray with water my leaves. 

Please leave me in the water for 10 to 15 minutes, put a timer so you don't forget about me. Then take me out, and let the water drain for about 5 to 10 minutes in an empty container or the sink. After being drained, put me back on my plate or hanger.

. 

I might need water more often during summertime or less often during winter.

Always weigh me!

LIGHT REQUIREMENT

Medium to High Shaded

The more light I receive, the more I will grow, but never expose me to direct sunlight. 

​

Don’t put me in a dark place all day long nor outside in the sun all day long.

HUMIDITY REQUIREMENTS

Moderate to High

​

I can tolerate low to high humidity.

TEMPERATURE

55-85 degrees

​

60-85 degrees If below or above, please put me inside. Do not place me under the A/C vent nor near a TV.

IDEAL PLACE

Inside or Outdoor shaded

Place me inside with indirect light, the brighter the better or outdoor shaded.

Put a plate under me, but it can’t be tight covering all the moss ball. My ecosystem needs ventilation.

If I catch rain just once a week, I'm fine. Otherwise, I could be overwatered and be damaged.

COMMON PROBLEMS

​

Leaf dropping can be caused by the relocation process and likely not a cause for concern.

Other causes could be low humidity or water.
