I bought these fern spores on ebay , around April . Up until October there hadn't been much change , just a lot of wet brown dusty granules . And then the specks began to turn green , I really was convinced that nothing was going to happen . I think they were stimulated a bit by extra exposure to the light .
they look great, Pete - well worth the patience :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lis , its cheap too , , I realized all the plants I were interested in but were never available in the shops , were available through mail order . So , for example , these spores cost me about $6 including postage . I now have to try to create an environment of shade and abundant moisture for them to survive , yes building a bio sphere is probably my next project .
