Finally got my hands on a yeti cooler.
Was looking for a 45 but came across this used roadie.
It was dirty but cleanable. Had the idea to give it a makeover with a lot of stickers, but it came out great after a good clean with alcohol. Only the top still has scratches and stains, they are harder to remove. If anyone has tips, please share!
Payed 100€ for it, was lost with shipping due to a wrong shipping label. But happy it arrived today.
My journey in growing sphagnum.
I wanted to try and grow some sphagnum for my other plant hobby, Japanese maples, to be able to do more air layers.
So I bought a bag of sphagnum from a local garden center. The bag said that sphagnum is a living medium, so I hoped I could make this work.
I bought an IKEA Samla box and designed and printed a mesh to create some distance between the rainwater in the bottom of the bin and the moss. I added a layer of moss and then used the green bits out of the bag to spread across the bin. I used sterile shears to cut it into smaller bits before spreading. I gave it a good watering with rainwater and put it in a room with a window but no direct sunlight.
Do you think this will work, or should I have done something differently? I didn't soak the moss for 24 hours; is that a must?
