How to Build a Terrarium

A terrarium lets you bring the outdoors indoors. You're limited only by your imagination.



This terrarium was built by my grandson and it cost us nothing (aside from already having the aquarium so figure in that cost).

My sister and brother-in-law have a large vacation property and his woods are loaded with plants and moss. We got moss (you can see the outdoors moss garden I'm building here Moss Garden ) and a small fern. When he first added these things it was pretty flat. There wasn't much growth. In a matter of about 2 weeks the fern has taken off. You can see there are other small plants and vegetation growing as well.

To make the terrarium, he put down a small amount of dirt at the bottom of the container and then added some sticks and rocks from our backyard. He mixed in moss and added the fern to complete the project. When you start your terrarium, begin adding dirt and rocks and moss and sticks and plants where you think they look good and move things around until you get the desired effect.We spray this daily and I have it sitting by my picture window for sunlight.

His plan is to get a screen for the top and add some poison dart frogs. You can do that or simply set the terrarium up for looks only.

I'll put up a picture when things grow more.

In another post, I'll show you the way he set up a turtle tank. It's a different type of terrarium with water and rocks and plants.
