I found the riccia pretty easy. Just spread it thinly on top. Mine is on top of dried spagnum moss, which is on top of the cocofiber/peat mixture. Then just keep it moist. Spray it every day. Give it the right kind of light, same as the other plants and it will fill in nicely after a couple of months. It makes a nice green carpet. Fran

That should be plenty of light and it is the right kind. Fran
