The beer + moss in a blender recipe did not work for me when I tried painting it on decorations inside a terrarium, it just grew cottony mold but outdoors in humid shady conditions it might be OK. I do have a bunch of naturally mossy bricks by my front door that I could ship you some moss from if you wanna pay shipping (if you're in the US that is). Not sure what the bricks are made of so the chemical composition might be far different than the statues but it will be used to growing on stonework.
If they are made of painted plaster as you mentioned,
they will likely eventually crumble apart from the moisture needed to grow moss,
but you can enjoy them in the meantime.
And the buttermilk is indeed what people use when wanting to grow moss on things outdoors.
Good luck with that!
a few years ago i picked up a one ounce packet of "bonsai moss" spores from a local garden nursery. i never ended up using and it eventually got lost but the packet definately had enough spores to last a lifetime. you could try finding something like that
I agree with Growin - the plaster probably won't stand up to moisture very well. And melting plaster might cause a problem in your media. Anyways, Chia seeds were my first thought as well. They can be found at health food stores for sprouting or making teas.
What does this have to do with the thread whatsoever? Nothing, that's what. I'm getting really tired of your snotty, bigoted intolerance. How about acting a little more like your savior and a little less like a troll?
And don't PM me with another cloying apology like last time; I have neither the time nor the patience for hollow platitudes. Your ignorance is only exceeded by your insincerity.
