Tips To Look After Your Terrarium
A little misting each week will help keep the plant hydrated & encourage moisture. However, it is always best to under water then over as it’s difficult to remove excess moisture and water. Naturally depending on the sun intake the terrarium will start to develop it’s own moisture and water system - this is when you get a really thriving ecosystem. Closed terrariums will naturally hold higher moisture due to the sealed vessel.
What Light Your Terrarium Needs
Position the terrarium in a brightly lit spot, such as near a window, but not in direct sunlight. They need high light but not direct as you don’t want to burn the plants. Occasionally rotate the vessel to make sure plant growth is even. Plants will naturally grow towards the side most facing the sun.
Cleaning & Terrarium Upkeep
Keep the vessel clean by removing dust or moisture from the glass. This can be as simple as wiping the glass down with a cloth whenever you think is needed. Also, remove any dead leaves to prevent growth of fungi and gnats.
When watering it is best to use filtered water, distilled or water left out overnight so there are little chances of additional unnecessary minerals going into the ecosystem. If fog or too much moisture/water appears in the bottom pebbles, open the vessel and let it evaporate for a bit, then re close before it dries out.
