Legigo 3.5oz Premium Sphagnum Moss Potting Mix- 4 QT Natural Succulent Carnivorous Plants Moss Dried, Plant Growing Medium for Orchid Succulent Sarracenia Orchid Gardening Plants Reptiles

Purchased the 3.3 lb block.As far as sphagnum goes, I've purchased a brand that came in a 1.2 lb block. One that came in a 2.2 lb block, same brand as this, as well as this; 3.3 lb block. The original block, different brand, was excellent. Long fibers, low bits and pieces good color and fluffy.Of this brand the 2.2 lb bale came in a 15-in (ish) by 15 in (ish) by 6-8" block. This bale, containing 10 or so more quarts and another lb of sphagnum is actually compressed to less than half of the size of that. The block itself was probably 8x8x10 or something, going off memory.The benefit to the 2.2 lb block, it wasn't overly compressed so it was easy to pull moss off in sheets About a quarter of that block would do three to four of the moss poles I do. When naturally decompressed, it would fluff easily and remain in Long fibers. It DID have quite a lot of the smaller bits, many more than previous. I just use those in my mixes that need high water retention. It had a good smell but did have several sticks and pieces of plastic twine. I would recommend it.At time of writing originally, I had not broken into this one yet, but since editing, but it appears VERY compressed.It's not necessarily true the first block I bought was fairly compressed as well, not as compressed as this but it was more compressed in the previous block, and that block actually had less of the little bits and the broken strands then the block of this brand, That was less compacted.All in all, the fibers were all average at least three plus inches, so I think it worked out. It does compress a bit more than the previous batch. I don't like to use the little bits as they will come out through the holes in the moss pole, so I tend to kind of wad them in with the longer strands and stuff then in the middle, or again, use in soil.I've actually used all the block now, and am getting more. When allowed to expand, there is physically more sphagnum there, but it's not as fluffy, and it has more fines and broken stuff. I'm torn. I don't know if the increase makes up for it, and since the stuff is a bit finer., It'll compact a bit more, and is easier to over pack the poles, but not a lot, so in the end you really still only get a bit more. I have started adding bark to my moss poles to add something hard for roots to wrap into and onto, that takes up space and helps airate.Now I see they have a 4.4 lb block. I'm worried it's just as compressed. When you over compress this stuff you lose volume. It gets smaller and packs more.

I used this moss for my orchid and a little for my succulents. It came clean and dry, good quality. no bugs or smell. It holds water nicely but the texture doesn’t stay too wet. First time using moss like this and I’m happy with it. My plants seem to like it too.

Works great and was a lot of moss. The pictures ont do justice to show how much moss was there after expanding.

It expands like crazy so be aware of that. It smells fishy for a couple of days but then it goes away. My plants really like it. It retains moisture, very good quality, and there's a lot of moss in there. It weighs a lot! I was pretty shocked when I saw how it expanded. Perfect size amd color.

The product that you sent was all that I had expected. It was good quality arrived on time even before time and I appreciate all your attention to detail.

The moss comes dehydrated.It was a surprise to me.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Package of moss seemed very small but when I open the package and fluffed the moss up, there was more than enough for the three orchids I was repotting. I rehydrated moss with a few cups of warm water. No miscellaneous or foreign material in the moss, provided adequate moisture for my plants. Happy with the price and quality; I will re-order again.

Extremely disappointed. Never buying this product again. Ratings were misleading. Bad smell, it was so overpowering I had to ventilate the house. Consisted of Less than 10% strands over 2”, 15% 1-2”, the rest were crumbs. A lot of twigs, muddy clumps. I basically had to throw 75% of the whole lot.Updating my review from one star for product to 3 based on customer support. The seller responded to my comment with offer for money back.
