I have learned a lot from SerpaDesign. I would highly recommend watching his content. Accurate, easy to follow, and very thorough.

Do all terrariums have to have some sort of bugs?🫤🤍🪴

#### Jules replied on 2024-03-10

I’ve done them both ways. I have found the ones without bugs I tend to have to wipe down the inside more often.

Don’t… lol… it’s addictive. Very very addictive. 🤣🤣🤣

Seriously though, start with some easy plants like nerve plants or a small fern and go from there. Moss is always good to start also. My go to recipe is rocks on the bottom, a sprinkling of charcoal, topped with a sheet of preserved moss (the stuff they put on the top of plants… I don’t know the official name), then add your dirt and plants. Then give it a little drink of water and close it up. It is a lot of fun and soooo addictive. I probably have made 6 in the last year.
