Fast way to grow moss on drift wood.

[Fran09]

Hi all,
Recently I saw some video of hobbyist grinding moss such as us fissiden and stick it onto the driftwood. Wait a couple of wks before adding water.
Just want to check anybody here done it with success?

Have been doing it for the past two weeks. Do see some new growth and some seem stuck to the wood when i try to give those patches a light push, of course, some patches not very encouraging too haha.

I have done it with some success with weeping moss. I did not grind the moss but I kind took it and stuff what I can into the crevices of the driftwood to give it that aged look and grew out of the driftwood on its own.

Right now I am trying to see if I can sustain US Fissiden half-immersed and half-submerged with some leftover I got from another brother here on the forum. The key point in any DSM set-up is to make sure there is sufficient humidity to sustain the plant and would mean constant squirting.

I got a similar Ewe-Toob video here that documents some of this process. Ian Cook has a thread on our forum as well.
