Air dried moss. How do you make it flourish and prosper?

[AlbinoCricket]

I bought a bucket of air dried moss the kind shaped in circles. I know this kind of moss can be brought back to life, even though I haven't had any luck in the past. Does anyone know of a good way to achieve this?

submerg it over night in clean water, it should revive. after soaking place in a bright location, out of direct light. good luck!

Fully submerge the moss, or is it a partial soak? Do you want to firmly place the moss on the dirt? Also will this moss spread to other areas over time?

Fully submerge moss for the initial soak. Keep moist thereafter. Whether it will spread to "dirt" depends on many factors including what substrate that particular type normally grows upon. Mosses, IME, can be VERY slow to spread so do keep that in mind.

I will probably buy some moss growing substrate that should help it stay alive. Thanks for your help.
