Hi
I was just wanting to know if this LFS is the right stuff for Venus Flytraps. I bought some a few years ago,but i can not seem to find it on amazon any more,so was wondering if this will work.
Thanks

That’s it.

I've never used the Supermoss brand myself so I can't comment on its quality though it's probably fine. Spagmoss and Better-Gro are the two most commonly used brands.

If I remember correctly, SuperMoss is sourced in Chile, so it should be pretty good.

The only reason i was asking about the supermoss is cause i need as much as possible for $30 or less. The supermoss is almost 2.5 lbs for $28.x which should be enough for me. The spagmoss is 500 grams. I bought 3 bricks of that a few years ago and still have 1 left,so i might just get that.
Thanks for the help.
