What bothers me is; I was told and read that terrariums are low maintenance and easy for beginners. I bought all the equipment for one and now I have to wait almost a year in quarantine before i can plant.🤨 Seems not worth it. Who knows if i will even care a year from now with no results to see.? There has got to be a easier way to get started. Also, does moss really need to be quarantined for 9 months too if you buy from a reputable company?
I understand your concern. Quarantine is a preference, it is NOT required. Each person has to decide on their comfort level for the risk involved. For most people making simple terrariums with common plants, skipping quarantine is probably fine. Quarantine is more for very rare plants and large collections where the spread of pests and disease could be catastropic. In other words, you get to decide if / how much quarantine you want, and how simple or complex the hobby is. I think you should just make your terrarium and go for it without a quarantine. The goal is to have fun! Again, with the moss, not necessary for you to quarantine.
@@AnotherWorldTerraria Thank you so much for your reply. And I can understand what you mean about quarantine for rare plants and having such a huge garden and investment. It has relieved me to know that I can keep my journey going, knowing that there might be hiccups along the way, but as a newbie to this hobby, I can seek some instant rewards. When I was learning guitar, someone stated, "learn songs or you'll start getting bored". I equate that to building my first terrarium. Get one built or soon you will become bored. I've learned a lot from your blogs and videos. Thank you for you hard work and quick response.
Thank you for the kind words and for watching and commenting. I'm glad to hear that you're on the way to having fun and moving forward in the hobby.
i can't watch your videos anymore because i get urge to drop college and start plant business 😂
HAHAHA 😂
Thanks for the great information 😊❤️🌿🇦🇺
This is first thing i will do after finishing exams 😅
Help! Does this affect isopods or springtails???
Isopods and springtails should not be affected by most plant fertilizers.
Love it
do you have a recommendation for a humidity/hydrometer to put in an enclosure that is waterproof? I have 2 vivosun gauges with a probe and if the probe gets misted, it quits working! Vivosun told me the probe isn't waterproof! seems silly to make a product to be in a grow tent that is not waterproof - just misting the probe a bit ruins it!!!
A hygrometer cannot be completely waterproof because it requires that air can reach the sensor. It would be best to avoid misting the sensor. Depending what you have the sensor in, you might try to put something over it to shield it from the spray, but that might affect the readings a bit.
Wow, it's really surprising to see the plants look so fresh and healthy, you are very skilled at maintaining plant varieties 🌱
Thank you! and thanks for watching and commenting!
could you explain in more detail what the mesh material functions for? does it retain moisture and might grow algae?
Retains humidity / helps equalize humidity, absorbs excess water from spraying plants, and looks nice in contrast to the plants
Thank you! The link to the material from your video is not available.. could you tell me if this is pretty much the same thing?
Oops, I cannot figure out how to attach a photo. Anyway, it is material to cover speakers Speaker Grill Cloth Stereo Mesh Fabric for Speaker Repair. If not, what should I look for?
It's hard to say without looking at detailed photos because it can vary in thickness. I looked around and found this one Amazon which is available currently. Make sure to check the measurements of the product and of the size of tent you're making, so you buy enough fabric. amzn.to/3X4DcDx
WOW!!!!!!! thank you! AMAZING BUILD!!
Glad you appreciated it. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Do you have a tutorial on how to build a growing tent similar to that one?
Yes! kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHt8k9ispM2fYdI.html
respect! thats hard work
What substrate is mixed in? Aquasoil or potting? Some clay stones red?
It's fluval stratum and red lava rock. Some of the other videos in this series go over that and other stuff in great detail.
Fantastic video where did you order these plants from? Thank you.
Thank you. It was a private trade with a friend
Video ideas: -substrate medias to keep in stock -fertilizers -how to inspect, prep, and clean new plants These are mainly videos that I would LOVE to see you make lol.
Thank you for the suggestions and feedback!
Very cool. I have a few Licuala mattanensis 'Mapu' seeds that have just started germinating like a month ago, about 9-10 months after sowing them. It's interesting because one seed only took like 3 months. I had almost given up on the rest.
Congratulations, that's awesome! That is quite a dramatic difference in germination time. Glad you held on for the remaining ones. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video!
I would recommend using a length of wooden 2 X 4 angled across the corners of the shelf when tapping them down securely with the hammer or mallet.
Thank you, that's a great idea!
Do you think it is possible to sterilize fern spores with sodium hypochlorite? Another thing I'm wondering is how you manage to keep the substrate in a closed container, without mold developing and without having sterilized it first.
I can't say about the fern spores. I have never heard of someone sterilizing spores. I think there's less chance of issues with the spores vs a seed in terms of fungal / bacterial. As far as substrate, that's a good question. The ingredients I use are all relatively clean , and I don't store them "wet," I mix them and then moisten them. Further, bark and sphagnum are very resistant to fungal growth. You could certainly sterilize the substrate if you wanted to (I think most people do that for growing fern spore, if that's your interest). For the palm seed substrate, I just didn't think it was necessary. The seed was important because it has a bit of soft stuff on the seed which can tend to decay and then it can grow fungus or bacteria (from the fruit stuff) Hopefully that all makes sense and answers your questions
@@AnotherWorldTerraria thanks so much, it's all very helpful!
Try to wash the fresh frond with water and a tiny bit of dish soap... Rinse off thoroughly, let it dry and then harvest the spore. You can use photo lens cleaning paper to separate spore from spore cases.
There's nothing as exciting as when a seed you thought had died germinates. way to go
Congrats on the successful germination! Would love to see these pop up more in the terrarium hobby!!😊
Thank you! Yes, palms are great. Too bad there are not many very small species.
@@AnotherWorldTerraria There isn't many, but would be nice to see more in the hobby! In Colombia, I saw so many tiny ones that had fruit at less than a foot tall.
That's bonkers! I would definitely love to see some of those miniature rarities. Thanks again for watching and commenting!
Im a simple guy, i see a new AWT video and SCREAM :)
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy!
I see those black gloves.. it’s going to be another great video!
This comment is amazing. I'm dying over here LOL
I think commenting helps
Yes, I heard that too.
Where did you get your sincoraea?
where is a good source to buy filmy ferns & other micros?
do you have a link for the mesh you used?
Sorry, no. I got the material from a friend many years ago.
@@AnotherWorldTerraria no worries
i need to remember to watch this soon i need to go to sleep now
Awesome video bro! Need some epiphytic cactus in my life 😅.
The little popup things are not doing your otherwise great video justice.
Thanks for your opinion
That Begonia herbacea is amazing!
You've got the touch. I have some of the same species but they aren't growing as well as yours
Awesome! Love these videos! Do more :)
Amazingly done video. Very nice as always.
Thank you for watching and commenting! Glad you enjoyed it!
I am always jealous of your Corybas. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice plants
Thanks a lot
Thanks for very interesting video. Beautyful plants!
Thank you too
neeeeeeeddd
Have you had different experiences with using grow lights with different colours and temperature? Any positives of negatives to the different options?
I have not tried drastically different color temperatures. I always go for the "natural white" lights (never the pink, purple, etc grow lights). I generally try to get in the 5000K-6500K range because the appearance is pleasing.
Beautiful build! Could I ask your advice on mold in a terrarium ? I built a terarium a few days ago, and it already has white mold on the decorative wood branches. Can it hurt the plants? Would it subside? I already have springtails but they dont help much... Would sincerely appreciate any advice!
It depends on the type of wood. Some wood is not suitable for terrariums and will continuously mold and rot forever. If you used a hardwood / suitable wood, then the mold will eventually die down. Isopods are also a big help. The mold should not hurt plants unless they are small and it envelops them
Out of curiosity, do you wear gloves to protect you from the plants? Or them from you? Do you change them between contact from bin to bin, or species to species? OR…are they to prevent you from getting some nematode or helminth under your nails, then into your body? Lastly, do you ever worry about breathing in the spores of fungus’ or molds? Do you protect your lungs? Wear eye protection? These are 100% serious questions. Ha ha. I’m a super huge germ freak and I’m starting the terrarium/ isopod hobby and sometimes that little microscopic world gives me the heebee geebeez! P.S. I’m a nurse, so my brain ALWAYS takes me to worst case scenarios and I see the wicked illnesses caused by “things” we can’t see, everyday.
@CrookedSteph The main reasons I wear gloves are: - Protect myself from things which are in the plants and soil (pathogens, parasites, irritating chemicals, etc) - Allow me to work with pesticides, chemicals, fertilizers, etc without harming my skin - I have dry, sensitive skin so it's best to have that extra barrier anyway - Help prevent spreading pests and disease from one plant or area to another When going from one bin or tent to another, I often "wash my hands" with the gloves on, using soap and isopropyl alcohol. If I handle a plant or work in a bin which I feel has something really sketchy, I will sometimes throw the gloves away, or wash and sterilize them thoroughly and let them dry while I put on a new pair to continue working with other plants. Many of the molds found in plant bins and soil are relatively harmless to people unless they have an extreme sensitivity or are in constant contact with them. If there is adequate air movement and ventilation and the habitat within the container is "healthy" then there isn't a lot to worry about. That said, I try to avoid sticking my face right inside a bin or container which has been sealed for a long time, or if I see a significant amount of mold or anything else which looks sketchy. Yes, I do wear goggles when working with plants and soil. I just like that extra layer of protection from parasites, pathogens, and eye injuries due to dirt or chemicals.
@@AnotherWorldTerraria Perfect! Sounds like I’m on the right track and not being neurotic. Ha ha. Thank you so much for the very comprehensive response. I just love the people in this new found hobby; always so helpful and full of wonderful information!
What is the humidity and temperature
RH varies throughout the day from 90 up (Probably higher than it should be for some of the plants, but reducing the RH dries the plants out faster, and most plants are doing fine). Night temps are close to whatever the ambient room is, and day temps are ambient plus about 10F
1:17 “…they’re from the family Araceae…” haha, don’t sound so excited, dude! Jk. 😆 I’m just such an aroid freak, like many people, so it actually blows my mind how a Homalomena that small is related to other aroids! Monstera, Anthurium, Philodendron, Syngonium, Epipremnum, scindapsus, alocasia, aglaomena, amorphophallus, pothos and everything else! But then again, so are Anubias, Cryptocoryne, Lagenandra and Bucephalandra! And those are pretty small plants by comparison…
Anyone who watches this and might be asking “where did you get your plants”-but you can’t necessarily divulge your contacts-should just… do a little online researching! 😆 Infinite amount of vendors and resources, and even local and nearby sellers on Etsy are highlighted on the app… and of course just trying various nurseries and seeing what’s available. Might be surprised! But in general, I don’t think people should even have to bother asking… the internet is there for you to “ask”. Lol.
Osmocote 16 7 18(-4), is it ok for bucephalandra emersed planting
I have never used it and am not familiar with it, but if it's a general purpose fertilizer then I think it should be OK. Start with low dose, add more if needed.
Does it matter if it's my osmocote is 16 7 18(-4), that's how it says
That IS a turtle back labisia. I have one and adore it😌 This video has made me feel way better about my collection area lol. I always say it looks like a cross between a mad scientist’s lab and a witch’s….well…whatever a place a witch does spells and incantations in is called. I do all of my incantationing outside personally so…meh🤷🏻♀️ Ooh….i also have one of those Saxifra Stolonifera!! I’m ashamed to admit that this is the first I’ve heard that they are not a true begonia! Kinda makes sense now why the way I tried to propagate it did not really work out for me🤦🏻♀️ugh. Stoked to see a “new” video of yours mister! I remain envious of your filmy fern collection but emboldened by the hectic nature of your collection space. Thanks for the continued inspo always 🤗 PS-oh! Do you mean you feel that it’s been mislabeled by sellers in general and may not be a true labisia?
Thanks for the great comment. I love your sense of humor! Yes to your last question, I was insinuating that the ID which is associated to that plant in the hobby may not be correct. MANY of the plants in the hobby, especially the jungle plants from Asian countries, are just given random names and genus ID's. It's unclear whether the "turtle back" is really a Labisia or not. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, IDK. Thanks again for the fabulous comment :)
Whats the hoya looking plant thats vining down from the top? Got a twig of the same plant but its still really small so I couldnt tell the species
That is the fern Lemmaphyllum microphyllum
@@AnotherWorldTerraria Thanks!
The incoherent list is actually me explaining my plants or terrariums to anyone that isn’t super into plants 😂
Loved this video - its very relatable vs thinking that everything is perfect :) Don't get me wrong a clean neat video is nice to watch however also love seeing the work space and challenges. If the pop up animations are a drag to add then I could do without them but others may like...? Love you work and appreciate all of your content.
Thanks so much! 😊
Great new concept for a video. Enjoyed the change and the pop up hashtags and comments made it fun to watch. ❤
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Really enjoyed the grow tent footage especially with the new hygrolon poles
Glad you enjoyed it
