How to grow moss on stone

Rapid moss method

Place the prepared bonsai in river or well water. After a few days, sprinkle sweet potato flour evenly on the rocks. Wrap the bonsai with wet straw or cattail bags, tie it up with nylon rope, spray water appropriately, and place the bonsai in a shaded and humid place. In the future, spray water frequently. In this way, moss can grow after about two weeks in the dog days of summer, or as fast as a week.

Moss transfer method

First, soak the rocks in water for several days, then take them out and dry them for later use. Add a small amount of starch to the clay, use rice water to mix them into a thin paste, put rocks in it and turn it over and over again so that the surroundings are covered with mud. Select mosses that grow well for planting, use water to wash off the weed seeds attached to the soil, and place the moss close to the rocks. Be careful not to overlap the mosses, and leave some gaps between each piece to facilitate subsequent growth. Moss and stones should be combined naturally. After spreading the seeds, spray water with a spray, press lightly with your hands, and then place in a damp and dark place for maintenance. Be careful not to expose them to rain.

Drenching

Place the rocks in a pot and frequently water them with liquid fertilizer soaked in rice water, vegetable leaves, etc. After watering, it is best to cover them with a layer of plastic film to reduce water evaporation and keep the environment highly humid. Generally, in warmer months with suitable light, it only takes about a month for the stone to turn green and fluffy.
