I've been watching this little division of moss in my ghetto highland setup, and something I never expected happened...

Now begs the question what do I do for spore collection?
Part of is thinking 1020 with a dome full of peat.

I like it! I haven't gotten any of my sphagnum to spore like that.

Spore launched!

Now the onto the next problem: algae. I do not know of a way to supress the algae without potentionally killing off the moss spores

A surprise sporing from the same small batch of moss!
Augh I'll figure this spore germination stuff out

Very cool! I've never seen sphag sporangia before.

Blessed are the "cracked" ... for it is they who let in the light.
