    Because of your content I just finished my first terrarium in a jar. I used moss, stones and wood from my neighbourhood, some pre-made terrarium substrate and I put in 2 different Fittonias. I’m (hopefully) collecting some springtails in my garden , as we speak, to finish it off and I hope it’ll all thrive. It looks nice, maybe a new hobby has presented itself and they’re the perfect gifts if you need to get rid of some.

    Love the video and the end product. I’m not a huge fan of the spider wood pieces though, I wonder if you could put them down before planting and partially cover them a bit, make it look more natural. Either way, keep on building!

    You said you planted the java fern on top of the sphagnum moss, but then say to not plant them into moss or substrate. Does this just mean green moss in general? And what else can you plant it in, if you can't plant it into substrate? Is there a differnce when planting loosely on top and roots into?

  • @TerrariumDesigns

    @TerrariumDesigns

    By placing it on top will root down into the moss. With aquatic ferns don’t typically like their rhizome(the part where the leaves grow from) to be covered as they can easy rot
