Hello

to say it is not the best title, but no better I thought

Today I wanted to show you, how do I store my species, which it may not dry land. These are species such as A.lambii, A.titanum, A.hewittii, A.gigas, A.decus-silvae, u.v.m.


First I'm a suitable container. In the example here, it is a normal box of crickets from the terrarium accessories.



Then I'll take Sphagnum moss (the premium Moss from Chile) and wet it. Then I wring it out easily. But please not with full power out press the water. Yes pointless. The MOSS should be still wet to wet, but not wet. Like this, like a wet rag.

Now be I fill the container half loose with the MOSS and put into the tuber. In the example, it is Tan my John young, which I pulled from a cutting.



I fill up the container with MOSS, then press it to light . Then cover it and ready



Now only 1 times a week or all 14 to damp and control.

With storage in substrate, I've repeatedly had failures. Since I store the tubers in the Moss, I have more to complain about any failures. Another advantage is that as a result the tubers are easier to control much. I check once a week. I take out the Moss, do a Visual inspection of the tuber to new wet moss and then I put the bulb back into.

Even difficult candidates, such as gigas and decus-silvae survived in the MOSS without damage. Even a corm with a large laceration. She is now back in the Earth and drives off.

I have even containers without holes. It doesn't matter. You can be quiet airtight. Less you have to damp. You control 1 x a week, the tubers receive oxygen.

For me the ideal solution.

Depends on getting what you need for sizes. You can search for stacking boxes, storage boxes, plastic box, Yes

Crickets canned are getting punched. Search term "canned crickets"

And you can even search for "Braplast dose".

I'm here from the ebay search
