STEP 1

The pole is covered with a protective film on both sides. Remove this film before assembly. Fold the pole along the "pre-scored" fold lines on both sides, bringing them towards the center.

STEP 2

Lay the pole on a flat surface and fill it with your choice of substrate, such as moss, moss pole mix, or another suitable material.

Please don't pack the moss pole too much, but don't leave it loose. If packed to much, the roots will struggle. If too loose inside, the moss pole won't hold when extendengin.

If you are filling the moss pole with moss, it's better if you soack it in water first.

💡 TIP: Ensure that the portion of the moss pole inside the pot is filled with regular substrate, not soggy materials like moss, to maintain stability and proper support.

STEP 3

Gently bend the pole inward and lock the horizontal tabs one by one to close it. If the moss feels loose, you can return to step 2 and add more moss until it is packed sufficiently.

STEP 4

Position your plant against the pole. Unlock the nearest horizontal tabs and place them over the plant's stem to hold it in place. Be sure to leave the top node untied allowing the plant to grow freely avoiding the tip growing into the pole.

STEP 5

Insert the pole into your pot, ensuring it sits at the bottom.

STEP 6

Fill the pot with your chosen growing medium, making sure to fill around the pole without leaving any empty spaces. Gently pack the medium for stability.

STEP 7

Water your plant and keep the moss pole moist to encourage the aerial roots to attach.

🚀 EXTRA FUTURE STEP 1

Once the plant reaches the top of the moss pole, it’s time to extend it. To do so, slide a new pole over the existing one, ensuring an overlap of 7–10 cm for stability. Be sure to use the same moss pole size (S, M, L, XL) as the existing one to ensure a seamless extension.

& c'est fini! Enjoy your new PlantScraper® moss pole! 💚
