Check out our organic goat milk fertiliser pellets for moss!
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. But of course this is an amazing fertiliser for all plants including roses, vegetables, pot plants etc.
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.
Our clay/peat discs are inoculated with Tortella mediterranea spores and mother plant which, once wet, will grow after 3 weeks into moss that then connect together into a carpet and spread from there. The benefit of growing from spores is 1- they grow and thrive in the environment, if terrarium or moss garden, or water feature 2- the clay discs can be molded into any shape once wet and will stick to any surface. You can also divide the discs as they are inoculated with thousands of spores.
Tortella mediterranea is described as a new species from the Mediterranean Basin of southern Europe.
It grows into beautiful thick cushions with branches of 3-10cm long in limestone crevasses. When moist the leaves open into tiny thin stars, when dry the leaves close giving her a string-like appearance.
I have only just started to grow this species on my farm so I am only selling small size cushions, for now, please contact me if you really need a larger size and I will see what I can do.
It is mainly characterized by the absence of a stem central strand,
lanceolate leaf shape, rather gradual limb-sheath transition,
partial presence of elongate marginal cells in the upper half of leaf and ventral costal stereid band usually stronger than the dorsal.
