Original Soil Mix - Moss Terrarium Soil, Approx. 2 Liters

Thank you for viewing.
This listing is for surplus soil from my hobby of home gardening, mixed and prepared.
I also have other gardening soils listed, so please check them out under
#RiceGardeningSoil.


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

■Contents: Approx. 2 liters / Approx. 1.2 kg

■About the Soil Used in the Mix
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 mixed 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. Being hard, the granules do not easily crumble.

[Vermiculite]
This is a neutral soil made from crushed vermiculite that has been fired at high temperatures, enhancing 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 slightly more acidic.

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

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


Images 6 through 9 show examples of its use in my 60cm aquarium at home. Although I do not create moss terrarium art myself, I create imoriums for keeping newts. I have planted various mosses in this soil, mainly Hypnum plumaeforme, Rhytidiadelphus japonicus, and Lepisorus thunbergianus.


It will be packed in a resealable bag and then placed in a dedicated box or a shipping vinyl bag. Shipping will be via Yu-Packet Post.
*Only the item shown in image 5 will be sent.
