Minor cryptogam updates

The Asterella californica thallus has not done much, although its front end may have been slightly greener and its side margins may have become slightly more rotten.

However two moss rosettes have shown up uninvited in its cup. I'll let them stay for now.



In the moss-only cup, the smaller of the two moss morphospecies present has produced a third rosette! It had two rosettes originally.


The Sphaerocarpos is now in a sealed jar, Wardian case style. Hopefully this will eliminate the need for me to water it. When it was in an open topped jar it got coated with mud every time I added water, which was probably not very good for it. 

By the way the sealed jar now contains more than one Sphaerocarpos female because I planted some new ones in there today.
