I’m trying to calculate how much Sphagnum I need to order to fill my new pots as I prepare to restart my collection. Unfortunately most of it comes as dried, compressed blocks and there very little information on how much volume it’ll occupy wet in gallons or cu/ft.
I’ll be using 12x12x12 white square pots this time which hold ~6 gallons of media. I know sphagnum varies in mass so there’s some uncertainty, I just need a range. Starting with 6 pots but may get more. Gonna need lots of sphagnum. Trying to hunt down good deals.
