Wine corks for a mount
So this is the second mount I have done. I had a growing collection of wine corks so I used them to make a mount. The corks are attached together by threading wire through them and creating a brickwall layout. I then rolled it into a cylinder and closed the ends with champagne corks so it looks like a football. The inside is filled with coconut coir. When mounting the phal I worked to get as many roots as possible inside the cork ball. Afterwards I added sphag to the top as I wasn't sure how much water this would retain.
So will this work? If necessary I can remove the coir and use something else.
