Sporelings - Pyrosia longifolia - 'cresata'

[shawnintland]

Well, it looks like I've had some success with the spores! These were started on pure peat moss on August 13th and with the first true leaves starting to show I can relax a little... I was concerned that all the gametophytes might have been contamination from some local ferns growing nearby.

Hee, hee, hee! Now that I have your "Wonder-peat" I'm having to transplant them every 2 weeks as they crowd out each other so fast! Here's one of the transplants from last night;



here's the same plant while being transplanted 2 weeks ago;




and a few others;



 I hope you are still carrying that peat moss as I think I need to order a few more of the big bags! So many spores, so little peat!
