It was pretty simple. Started with aquarium plants from Petsmart, just cut off pieces and hot glued down. Also hot glued some cork and some rocks. Then I used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044L8J2C/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 vallejo gel texture paint, its just really thick brown paint with sand mixed in - slathered that around super thick and varied the surface, then let it dry. Reikland fleshshade, then dry brush with tan, stuck some army painter jungle and tufts down, then some watered down white glue for the moss and flocking. It sounds a lot more involved than it is, a whole squad of bases is maybe an hour of work.

it's like a thick paste or gel rather than a paint, and you can kinda push it around, make lumps and bumps or dents in the ground. looks pretty muddy. combine with some water effects to make actual puddles.
Vallejo Dark Earth with a bit of grit scattered over the top. It's great stuff, you can pile it up so it's not all flat and you get nice little ridges and a fine sand texture once it dries.
I e used them before, but I found that the cost was too much per model. So I looked into the Vallejo texture paints, super cheap and just as good.
