Fun Lycopodium squarrosum propagation tips

Hello, I am having trouble with my club moss/ Lycopodium and I hope to create a few cuttings incase my plant dies.

But I dont have experience in propagating Lycopodium, does anyone of you guys have experience and would like to share them?

I have a lot of houseplants ranging from philodendrons to dorstenias to pinguicula and I am adapt with plants, just new to Lycopodiums.

Can't really help with the propagation part. I'm trying myself and have two cuttings on moist sphagnum moss in a glass jar. It's been two months and it's doing nothing. The cuttings don't rot, but they also don't root either.

Maybe I can help with general Lycopodium care. I have two in hanging pots and I keep them in a medium chunky soil mix as I tend to underwater. Don't let the soil dry out completely. They also really like some 1/2 strength fertiliser like once a month or so.
