Its only been a month or so, give it time.
And keep the updates coming. If you can get this to work I'll be trying it myself. Its only been a month or so, give it time.
Yeah I'll keep it updated. I made a othe one a couple days ago with the moss thinned out a bit more and the two pieces of stitch have a little more room between each other so it's no o right. I read that if it's to tight it may not grow as well so we will see if that one does any better.
Hey atleast you got it to grow!! Are you doing anything special? I've always read Java moss is pretty easy but I've never really had it take off. No problem keeping it alive just doesn't grow much. I've tried high light low light co2 and nothing really works. The moss walls look good if you can actually grow one.
Mine is not "Java". It is some native Iowan fissiden, like.
I have had it submerged for a year, and it's still growing. I have yet to discover what it is called.
It is growing native between my garage and a trailer, on a old sheet of plywood "terrestrial ". About an 1/8" thick, It has grown over 6" thick in my fish tank. Fully submerged under a 2700k CFL.

Seriously this stuff is growing wild, next to my canoe. On the north side of the garage.
I have at least 3 types, of moss growing in my yard. The other two varieties have lasted about a week under water.
Every thing I have read told me that it should be dead by now. It gets frozen too -20 below in winter, + 100 f in summer. Droughts that turn the lawn brown.
My African cichlids like to chew on it and spit it back out. It also collects flake food that makes growing it kind of high maintenance.
I have quite a bit growing outside, if you want some to reasurch with, I would give you some.
If you tear off a price it will grow like a star fish. It has no, roots. Except when terrestrial.
Today, I only have a small ball of it. That will some times rotate. 
About 9 months ago, in old 30 gallon with creek chubs.I have spent many hours, tring to figure out what type it is, with no posative ID.
