DIY Jar Terrarium: A Beginners Guide

In this video I’ll be showing you how I turned a 2 litre masonry jar, into a terrarium! Terrarium making is super easy once you get the hang of it, and will certainly bring you closer to nature! If you haven’t already made a diy terrarium, I highly suggest you do!

My substrate mix:
Coco fibre 1 part
Sphagnum moss 2 parts
Orchid bark 1/4 part
Charcoal 1/4 part
Worm castings 1/4 part

Hope you enjoy the video! Let me know if you have any questions👇

I've been seeing a lot of stuff about people just chucking in some rocks and dirt into a jar, spraying some water in, sealing it, and then it miraculously turning into a bioactive vivarium. Does that actually work?

[Babygurlaqsa]

It's very beautiful and attractive....I love it❤❤

Did you harvest the plants from the woods?

[jacpace]

Can you use regular store potting soil?

[laddesansatoredinuvole]

Do you know where i can find springtails?

[luvlecavalier]

Does the lid stay shut? Or do you open it once in a while to let oxygen in or? Thanks :)

[MrHoundog]

This is amazing! Do the springtails do well without the presence of charcoal?

[OksanaFairfield]

Where does he live that moss grows so well and beautifully and so many types and so much

[debbiebridges]

Can you use lava rock as the drainage layer?

[lilfury]

Can you use a jar with a twist lid and do you have to use a light?

[mandarinesoranges]

Can I use dried hypno moss or fern moss instead of sphagnum moss for the substrate? I don't have any sphagnum moss

[christopheralexanderalumis]

I know this is a video from 10 months ago, but can I use just regular soil?

[tryiadawoj]

What if i overwatered my 250ml terrarium?

[PREDATOR]

Are they selling? can you build a busyness around this hobby?

[billybobblogs]

Silly question but where can I get hold of the window screen mesh
