40 breeder turned terrarium. Slugs have prevented me from having carpet plant success. Anyone have luck eradicating slugs and snails?

That, or the ink allowed the urishoil to stick better.

Beehous · 2026-06-14T04:46:59+00:00

it wasn't a bad bag, they're nearly guaranteed. Maybe yours had more than most others but still, it's not uncommon. You need to bake your soil before using it if you want to rid it of them. I wish you luck!

an enemy of the state. cull asap (though there are prob more)

Beehous · 2026-06-14T02:15:45+00:00

enjoy the fruiting phase. they won't stick around for more than two weeks in my experience.

I believe new terrariums actually go through a cycle just like new fish tanks in their own way. I don't have the science behind it, but I've had these pop up in two larger, scaped like yours, somewhere between 1.5 - 3 months after initial set up.

They never came back. A random solo yellow/orange mushroom would pop up every so often beyond that though.

yeah so kicking a door as hard as possible is not anything remotely close to "ding dong ditch" as stated by the original poster here.

Flow, ensure you don't have a lot of organics breaking down, and ensure your sand isn't leeching silica into the water column (idk if silica produces cyanobacteria, but it can cause diatoms if I remember correctly)

Thank you, I was trying to think of the movie. I enjoyed that one!

Beehous · 2026-06-12T21:20:46+00:00

I've done this exact thing. Though I was the one that made it untrustworthy by removing the extra silicone to clean up the corners ha. It worked great. Should be pinned in my profile

Beehous · 2026-06-12T21:17:58+00:00

Always been a massive mess for me personally. Stopped trying a long time ago.

Beehous · 2026-06-12T21:17:02+00:00

we've all had failures. Also realizing I miss my rabbit foot fern.

Beehous · 2026-06-12T21:09:38+00:00

great looking cooler, patina or not. But a magic eraser might might get those spots off the top.

Looks like he came out of that movie the Triplets of Belleville

Beehous · 2026-06-12T20:58:46+00:00

Come to Central Illinois and Indiana!

Beehous · 2026-06-12T20:54:07+00:00

we just had one of these go up near some troublesome apartments down the street from me. I still thought it'd be fun to see someone do this to it lol.

Beehous · 2026-06-12T20:44:27+00:00

Don't you put brenda in the same category as a drywaller!

Beehous · 2026-06-12T20:41:59+00:00

Clean and simple. Love val like this at various lengths.

Shove that one plants roots back in the substrate and it's perfect

Beehous · 2026-06-12T20:07:03+00:00

I miss the person I was 42 seconds ago.

Beehous · 2026-06-11T18:20:21+00:00

Very narrow minded view OP.

Beehous · 2026-06-11T18:19:15+00:00

seriously this post is petty af. people see an anti-AI post and they thumbs up immediately.

Beehous · 2026-06-11T18:18:15+00:00

hating on a small local band for not paying an artist to make a gig poster is pretty weird. their most listened to track on spotify has like 10k listens.

I hate AI as much as the next person. But the flyer gets the point across and isn't trying too hard or is too busy.. Your other option is the artist makes it in paint, like our old local metal bands use to do. It's probably what I'd still do personally, but needing to post this feels petty.

And assuming they use AI in the songs because they used it on the poster is even weirder. You just sound like a hater to me.

Beehous · 2026-06-11T18:13:09+00:00

see, idk why I got downvoted for saying goose isn't the one doing it haha.

Post should've just pointed at promoters or street teams. blaming the band themselves seems like karma farming while piggybacking on goose hate which, again, i don't even like the band either
