Potting a Plant

[TrueCut]

Hey guys i am in the middle of a DIY cage. I am potting a plant into the cage base what type of dirt should I use. I know there are articles on this just couldn't find any. Also are Dowels acceptable for chams to climb on?

Really recommend ordering fox farm's happy frog organic soil. It has no fertilizers and is safe for chams.

what about the use of Dowels?

If you are planning to use wooden dowels then i am sure they're fine as long as you seal and cure the wood properly so it doesn't rot.

Great question...The only organic potting soil I could find in my area was organic redwood bark, and I just put 2 inches of moss over the top of that.

Get rid of that stuff and get soil... you need to put smooth river rocks over what you have not moss. Moss wouldn't be good if anything ingested it..
