Large Producing Master Springtail Cultures

Fully producing mature master springtail culture with 500+ springtails in a 48 fluid ounce (6 cup) container on a soil substrate.  Don't have several months to wait to have a fully producing springtail culture, or have you struggled to get your springtail culture producing hundreds and hundreds of springtails?  This is the culture for you!   This culture comes in a large container that is intended for permanent housing of the springtails.  You do not need to transfer them to another container/enclosure unless you wish to.  

If you don't wish to take a scoop of the soil with the springtails in it, an easy trick is to put a small seed pod or a piece of charcoal on top of the soil, and the springtails will gather on the seed pod/charcoal.  The seed pod/charcoal can then be tapped to release the springtails where you need them.  Make sure to open the container and feed twice a week.  Each time you remove some soil, replace the soil you removed with fresh soil.  Removing some soil and replacing it with fresh soil on at least a monthly basis and feeding small amounts twice a week will keep your springtails happy and healthy.  We have springtail cultures that are over eight years old and thriving by simply using this remove-and-replace method.
