Long fiber sphagnum

I placed a layer of LFS on top of my growing medium(peat/perlite) and around my VFTs. The stuff is starting to turn green and it looks like some of it is sprouting small green tendrils. Is this normal?

The pots are in my yard and have been for the last week. I noticed the green a few days ago but it seems to be really taking over the surface now. Thanks.
 
IT is the sphagnum starting to grow
 
Can you post a pic? How long ago did you put the dry LFS on top? It should have a star-like appearance.
 
Home Depot & Lowes sells them as dried, in bags.
 
IF you live where there is an orchid gorwer they will normally sell you a 1/4 bale for about $22 this makes about 30 gallons of wet LFS
 
Thanks guys.
