How often should I change my water stake on my Angel Moss...
My moss has drank up all the water I had in the stake. Should I wait a couple days before I put the stake back in ? #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #help #AngelMoss

@FabRubbercup Exotic Angel moss (often known as Selaginella or Spikemoss) thrives on moisture. You should keep the moss consistently damp but not waterlogged. Water it whenever the very top surface begins to feel dry to the touch. Typically, this means watering it thoroughly once or twice a week. Exotic Angel moss is a tropical plant that relies on high humidity and clean hydration to prevent its delicate fronds from drying out. Keep the following key rules in mind:Hydration Technique: Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater to prevent mineral and fluoride buildup, which causes brown tips. Water slowly until the moss is evenly saturated, but never let the pot sit in standing water for more than 15 minutes.Soil Check: Because moss retains moisture densely, press your finger about a half-inch into the medium. Water immediately when it starts to feel only slightly damp or dry.Humidity: Keep the surrounding humidity levels above 50%. You can place the pot on a water-filled pebble tray or lightly mist the plant with a spray bottle.Light & Location: Keep the moss in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it will scorch the fronds, and keep it away from drafty heating or cooling vents.If you are trying to revive a dry plant or set up a terrarium.
I would check the soil in different areas, water stakes are notorious for only spot watering the soil so it may be unevenly wet and moss tends to like a constantly damp not always wet soil, think damp sponge so if it’s wetter than that no don’t water it wait till it dries out a little to give the roots some oxygen
@TerpyDragonfly I did pour some hydro mix after I took out the stake.
