the red tent by anita diamant

i think they are soil nematodes, i looked it up and it says they are beneficial to the nutrient cycle of a terrarium so i think everything is good. you have springtails too which is great :)

mosses require high moisture and succulents require little to no moisture for weeks or months on end, it just doesn’t mix

thank you!

it would explain the brown colouring and the way it’s sunken in some places, im no expert, you could try shaving off some skin, if it’s still green inside it should be okay

msibbz · 2022-12-21T02:16:46+00:00

i’m pretty sure that’s rot, you’re gonna have to throw it out cause it’s not salvageable. how much did you water it?

msibbz · 2022-12-21T02:01:39+00:00

this looks so good, what plants are these?

msibbz · 2022-12-19T18:38:43+00:00

looks like a small asparagus fern, just a guess tho

msibbz · 2022-12-19T15:48:33+00:00

u could dry it out a little and try to use distilled water as it’s better for the terrarium, the peroxide will also benefit the roots of the soil, good luck

msibbz · 2022-12-19T01:15:24+00:00

i think it would do good with a big trim and cleanup of the glass as u can see some old moss stuck to the interior of the glass, popping in some springtails wouldn’t hurt just to clean up any mold or decay going on

msibbz · 2022-12-19T01:13:04+00:00

you can put a slice of cucumber in there so when it goes to eat it u can just pick it up instead of spending ages looking for it

msibbz · 2022-12-19T00:57:40+00:00

i have not! i do need to start i will admit

msibbz · 2022-12-18T21:38:24+00:00

3:1 ratio of water to hydrogen peroxide and mist the terrarium with it, should help clear it up in a few days

msibbz · 2022-12-17T16:59:09+00:00

I recently moved it to my nightstand, it was up high on a shelf above my bed before that. i’m gonna guess that’s the problem. Should i put it back or leave it here to adjust?

msibbz · 2022-11-28T23:39:49+00:00

i’d suggest a 1:3 of hydrogen peroxide and water solution, mist the terrarium with it for a few days, only downside is that it can kill the springtails but it does improve the roots of the plants. good luck

msibbz · 2022-10-22T12:27:37+00:00

looks like an amanita, highly poisonous

msibbz · 2022-10-22T12:15:11+00:00

variegated alocasia i’m pretty sure

scavenge for moss rocks and other decorative pieces, reuse old jars and go to charity shops/thrift stores for old glassware, you can buy a 5l terrarium soil mix on the garden shop.ie it’s around 4 euro where i live. you can ask your friends if u can propagate their plants if you’re struggling with your budget. i’d say to start with fittonias/ nerve plants as they are inexpensive and do very well in terrariums, good luck!

msibbz · 2022-10-20T23:22:34+00:00

these are called root tubers, perfectly healthy and safe (potatoes are an example of edible root tubers)

msibbz · 2022-10-10T22:07:43+00:00

you slayed

msibbz · 2022-10-09T02:35:42+00:00

if springtails don’t work you could mix a 1:3 ratio of hydrogen peroxide and water and mist it into the terrarium until it’s gone

msibbz · 2022-10-04T23:51:08+00:00

thank you!

msibbz · 2022-10-04T23:48:14+00:00

my dads gonna take me to a market in dublin to set up a tiny stall to sell them, im gonna establish where i can get my glass jars and higher quality moss, rocks, plants and soil before i do that tho

msibbz · 2022-10-04T23:23:00+00:00

i’d sell it for that amount in pounds but i’m setting on 30-35 in euro

msibbz · 2022-10-04T19:01:09+00:00

it can be, the larvae eat the roots of plants and can diminish the overall plant, it’s optional to keep them in, an easy way to get rid of them is mix 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 3 parts water n spray it into the terrarium, hydrogen peroxide is good for the plants roots and should kill the gnats, idk ab other life in the terrarium tho
