European Kakedama substrate with Sakura Terra
On Mineravi.com, we present our exclusive mixture for European Kakedama, a unique combination of Sakura Terra, blonde and perlita peat, designed so you can create your own Kakedama at home. Although the process of making a kokedama can be a challenge, the result is a living art work and a unique decorative element for your home or office.
Main characteristics:
- Sakura Terra: Our crushed expanded clay, an ecological substitute for Akadama, provides excellent water retention and porous structure.
- Blonde peat: Used instead of the sphagnum moss mob, it improves moisture retention and provides an air base.
- Perlita: Added to optimize aeration and drainage, essential for the health of the roots of the plant.
How to make your kokedama:
-
Preparation: Mix the mixture for European Kakedama with water until you get a consistency that can be molded. It must be wet but not soaked.
-
Ball formation: Take an adequate amount of the mixture and form a compact ball with your hands. This step requires patience and delicacy to ensure that the mixture does not fall apart.
-
Plantation: Make a hole in the ball and carefully place the roots of your chosen plant inside. Then, close the ball around the roots.
-
Moss cover: Wrap the ball with living moss, making it with a thread or rope firmly but carefully.
Tips and warnings:
- Patience and practice: Making a kakedama requires patience and practice. Do not be discouraged if your first Kakedama is not perfect.
- Let's do it: Prepare to get your hands dirty. The creation of a kakedama is a manual process and can be a bit messy.
- Posterior care: Once done, immerse your kakedama in water when the moss feels dry to the touch and place it in a place with indirect light.
