it looks more like a ketchup bottle to me
today, there's only about 20+ left, most of them rot at the base and the plant just dies off. surprisingly, it is the big and tiny plants that survived till today. the "medium" ones died..
the bigger ones start to sprout new roots, should i keep them in the moss, or move them into mix of charcoal?

Over here we use the 700 ml Johnny walker bottles with about 40 plants per bottle.
AS for the remaining plants, i'd leave them in the moss until they get a little more established. It's a pity you lost so many plants.... you have to be very careful when using Sphagnum moss, The plants stay wet all the time and rot sets in. |

I think this whole thread and the associated answers on the other thread too are all fascinating. It's a world I know absolutely nothing about.
Fantastic to read. I think I'll just lurk here and take it all in.
Thank you Folks.

They really are ready right now, they look great. They could wait 2 months but could be misshapen if they run out of room to grow.
