Larch forest on lace rock no. 1

[Ruddigger]

I tried Hagedorns muck formula, I didnt like it. It smelled terrible after a few days and dries out really fast. Now I just use 50/50 sifted potting soil and wet long fiber sphagnum. If I have any akadama dust I throw that in too.

Good to know your experience I’ll see if that is what I observe.. I made two batches of corn starch one that still had some viscosity left to it , and another that was like puddy.

Muck wall is holding up well .. not bad for a first try ! We’ll see how it hold up moving into summer months. Gotta still use that old lace rock if not this year then definitely next
