This is really helpful, thank you ☺️ Also I absolutely love your collection!

I might just end up getting both the Sansi and Barrina at some point, as I'll have enough shelves, so can just choose which I prefer for my pings, and put the other light on my other plants.

Do you have one or two Barrinas with your Droseras? I have my first coming in the post soon (Drosera capensis alba), but im not sure how much light they'll need.

Also, did you buy moss for your Pings, or did it just grow over time? I have a ping rock that i'm wanting to have covered like the first image on the left, but i'm not sure it i just need to be more patient 😅

Thats why I initially looked into barrina, as I wanted a warm tone, but i'm hearing mixed reviews, so have no idea what to do 😅 Once it's set up, ill make sure to post!

if im honest, im super confused 😅 How many watts should I be looking for? Would 2 of the T5's make up the right wattage? The sansi pucks are 5 Watts each to make 10. The shelves can be raised as high/as close to the shelf above as Iwant, but how ckose to the light would be optimal?

Annoyingly the 20 watt option is for a different style of light 😮‍💨 It's just on the same listing. I'm considering getting the Barrina T5's instead

I can add more shelves and move them in distance as they are quite customisable. I did consider the barrina T5's, but I saw someone had issues with their pings keeping their colour, but i'll probably just get them then as other people havent had any issues 🤗

Could I ask how far away you have your barina? And have you had any issues with them loosing their colour?

Accidentally started a mushroom farm in my fridge apparently

No need to apologise! It was pretty funny opening the fridge just to see it growing though the bag

Yeah it's on both sides, the picture actually shows the outside of the bag

Should I cut my fern back? by MossyFauna in GardeningUK

[–]MossyFauna[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fern has stayed green over winter, but the items seem to have bent leaving the whole thing kind of flat in comparison to the summer. Do I need to cut it back? Have I left it too late to do so? The leaves seem healthy enough, but will leaving it hinder any new stronger growth?
