I've had trouble finding an exact or even remote answer to storing rinsed media. So I figured to throw the question out there hoping someone with more experience to give me some advice.
I recently rinsed peat moss, perlite, silica sand, and some NZ LFS so that I may have it ready for potting when the time comes.
The silica sand has dried since, but the peat moss and perlite is still moist. Is there any risk in keeping it moist or should I have it dry out? It's pretty simple to wring out LFS and peat moss, but if it would be better to have some moisture I don't mind leaving it that way.
Again I wouldn't have asked, but I couldn't find anything about storing media after rinsing.
Thank you in advance!
