Hi. First of all, I couldn't think of a name, so I decided on something that rhymed, and yeah xD.

Well, as the title sugests, I had an accident trying to get a leaf pulling off my 'Akai Ryu'. I was going to take a leaf that was beginning to die and use it since I've struck a dying leaf before. Well...I got a little more than I wanted. Two more pieces came with it from two dead leaves...

The packaging said it was "naturally sterile." I'm not sure if that's referring to it being acidic since it's sphagnum or if it is completely dead and won't grow. I'd like to get some live sphagnum going if possible. I already had some sort of green top soil moss starting to grow that I think...
I'm hoping on starting a mini bog out of a plastic pot and I don't really know if this is the correct way to go about this since it's my first time making one so far this is my plan.
I've bought a 12 1/4"- 31cm plastic pot and I'm hoping to put a few CP plants in it so far I have two typical...
