The moss provides an extremely airy structure around the roots, which is essential for these species to prevent root rot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNatural antibacterial action:\u003c\/b\u003e Sphagnum naturally contains substances that inhibit the growth of fungi and bacteria, increasing the survival rate of vulnerable plants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicroclimate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Due to its enormous water retention, a small amount of moisture constantly evaporates from the moss.

This ensures maximum air permeability (oxygen for the roots) and a large evaporation surface. As a result, the moss acts as a natural humidifier that slightly increases the local humidity around your tropical plants, which is essential for the growth of healthy pitchers and traps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e #verzorgingtabel {   border-collapse: collapse;     display: block;     overflow-x: auto;     white-space: nowrap;     max-width: 800px; } #verzorgingtabel td, #verzorgingtabel th {   border: 1px solid #ddd;   padding: 4px; } #verzorgingtabel tr { height: 50px; } #verzorgingtabel tr:first-child { background-color: #f2f2f2; font-weight:bold; } tip {   display: none; }  @media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {   tip {     display: block; } \u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable id=\"verzorgingtabel\" style=\"width: 89.2697%; height: 230px;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eClassic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003ePremier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eSupreme\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003e70% \u0026gt; 100 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003e50% \u0026gt; 150 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003e80% \u0026gt; 175 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eUse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eRetail \u0026amp; hobby\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eCommercial \u0026amp; hobby\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eCommercial \u0026amp; high-end hobby\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eBrown\/cream, little green\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eBrown\/cream, light green\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 33%; height: 25px;\"\u003eBrown\/cream, light green\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ctip\u003e You can scroll horizontally in this table\u003c\/tip\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFresh out of the packaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.freewebstore.com\/origin\/253478\/spagmoss-classic-sphagnum-besgrow_1622027389726.jpg\" alt=\"Sphagnum classic compressed\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo minutes after adding water:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.freewebstore.com\/origin\/253478\/spagmos-classic-besgrow-sphagnum_1622027448742.jpg\" alt=\"Sphagnum classic gehydrateerd \"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note: Dried (non-living) moss\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is dried and compressed Sphagnum moss.
