Growing Java Moss in a baggie...

Lonewolfblue sent me a nice sized bunch of Java Moss earlier in the week. I thinnk it got in on Thursday. I didn't have time to tie it down to anything, so I added some tank water to the baggie and floated it in the tank. I still haven't had time to play with it, but happened to look at it when I was taking pics of the tank. Would you know it.....the plant was growing and even pearling IN the bag! I guess being so close to the lighting may have had something to do with that. It's got new bright green buds all over the plant.

I wouldn't say it's pearling. Plants respire just like we do. They take in CO2 and give off O2 during the day and vise versa during the night. If this air doesn't have a place to go then it will just build up on the bag.
