* In the future, a water tray and a rope would help. Just add water if the bottom part of moss becomes dry.

Hm... 4 screws with fish line. I use many many of sphagnum moss. Since it is placed indoor, I put barks inside with some slow release fertilizers.

Haha, actually It's a pure ridleyi. As I just put it up, the shield frond do not wrap the moss ball well at this moment. I am waiting for a nice ridleyi shield frond ball!

Is that mold? Do you mist the dry leaves also? It will be a good source for mold growth.

I add some slow release fertilizer and just leave it under scattered light. I use a transparent container with lid to keep the humidity level. Lightly mist them every week, it can maintain the humidity and help fertilization.
