Initially when I started thinking about growing CPs I came to know that the media I will be needing is either Sphagnum moss or peat moss, so I tried finding it alot but didnt succeed and found only grass moss or coco peat, out of which grass moss was not the right thing to grow CPs in and coco peat(made of coconut husk or coirs) was very high in salt content(almost 300 PPM) which leads to burning of roots. I was looking for sphagnum or peat moss everywhere but every where I came across coco peat only.
I started searching online to find some source and also inquired online from international sellers about the cost and shipping, it was little hard to import small amount of sphagnum moss as it was costing alot and also it required certificates from government authority to import it. I had to cancel the option of importing sphagnum moss mainly due of not being in mood of going through the tedious paper work or employee of the government authority. I tried using Soilrite mix which was available in plenty here till I was able to find a source of Sphagnum moss and it worked well too.
