My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

How fast does moss grow on rock like surfaces?

17 years ago

I have an experiment to finish and all of my data needs to be collected by Thanksgiving. My project consists of growing moss from a slushy (with the buttermilk solution and the beer solution) and painting both ceramic tiles and cement patio blocks. I will be misting them and keeping them in a greenhouse (since our weather is already changing so fast) Do you think I will get any results by then? I am also pretty sure I will be getting my moss samples from the family Grimmiaceae.
