You're the Bob Ross of terrariums. Sooo relaxing.
Bob Moss
yes i would make him ecology minister of the planet
LOL! You are so funny!
I agree I could watch him for hours
So true lol
I love to walk through the plant section of Home Depot and pick up any succulent bits on the floor that would otherwise be swept up and thrown out.
I do the same. I tried putting them I'm the pots to propogate properly. However they just throw them away. I don't like intentionally killing plant life and not giving them a chance, so I take all leaves home with me.now lol. Might as well give em a fighting chance before throwing them away
They won't even charge you anyways, since it's garbage to them, but you can get more plant life
I can't believe that it's been 7 years since I first saw your channel, and all of the progress you've made. I just came back to watch this video as a blast from the past.
I'm dying at the Justin Bieber hair! 🤣💀🤣💀🤣💀🤣💀
Awesome work. My husband said, "this guy is professional professional" 👌🏼 We're celebrating our 13th anniversary this weekend and building a terrarium is one of today's projects!
That’s beautiful 🥲
I LOVE the straw tip at 11:38! Great idea!
You just go..... And then you just see....
Man, look how far you’ve come. There is nothing more inspiring than consistent progress. I show your videos in all the public school classes I teach. 🙂
the glass on rocks sound is driving me crazy! lol....Everytime he spins the glass...
I love coming back and watching his old videos 🥰 . You can really see how far he’s come along. And it’s just so great to see
@serpadesign your channel is so pure! You explain everything so thoroughly and your unique tips are really helpful. I would have never thought to use a straw like that! You do great work and the soundtrack is so relaxing!
yeah the straw trick was amazing.
"Don't compact it, what that will do is compact it" xD
Danny K Truly, the words of a wiseman
Danny K what it does is suffocate the roots and propagate a living environment for anaerobic bacteria which cause root rot.
Elijah Ragland indeed, absolutely: the importance of soil structure.
Yes. Yes yes
Wow wow wow. I absolutely LOVE your channel. I was on youtube today, and a random video popped up about terrariums. From then on I've been fascinated with the idea of having a basically self sufficient plant system (closed terrarium). I'm super excited to see how this thing is looking in a few weeks. I've got a feeling that your channel is gonna sky-rocket soon! Keep up the amazing and inspiring work :)
@@skytower1662 any garden store or home depot or anything should have succulents, or u can do what mum did and get a small clipping from someone who has a bunch in their garden! then u can propagate it (google propagating succulents)
it's technically not a good thing to do, but if you take a small piece of a kind they have a bunch of u should be ok. if yr really worried, knock on their door and ask! many gardeners like to share their hobby!
Have watched several videos to learn how to start my own terrarium. I have selected yours as the one to follow. Good job!
I completely agree. I really like this guy!!!
Me too. I have my basic list ready to go.
I've recently found a love for terrariums. I love your channel, you're very informative and obviously put a lot of effort and care into your plants and projects. :) thank you so much for sharing your projects.
I've seen several of your terrariums that you've shown us and I'm impressed! Your ability to get these small ecosystems natural is impressive!
I have so many left over Bath and Body works candle jars that I've kept and now I have a purpose for them 😍
I made my very first terrarium with your help! Thank you so much! Bucket list item!
Very beautiful, thanks for sharing your ideas
Omg I've just discovered you and I'm so excited. Going to binge watch all your terrarium stuff. This video was great!
You are truely an expert at your craft sir, thank you for the build order.
For any ideas or things that you would like me to discuss in the future, reply to this comment.
How to take care of a Venus fly trap
You are correct. I keep about 10 gallons of distilled water on tap because of the above reason.
I can do that at some point.
SerpaDesign, Can you please do a video on how to pick out jars/containers and how to prepare them?

Lovely to see your first terrarium video, Tanner. You started as you have continued since by being both polite and very informative. Keep up the good work !
This is my new favorite CZcams video. There is just something about watching a person practicing their passion. LOVE IT. Also totally gonna make a terrarium now. Thanks man!
I'm so glad that youtube took me straight into your tutorial. I've fallen in love with terrariums, and it has been very overwhelming, simply to contemplate the first step of mixing the right combination of soil, let alone applying it by action. Your video was lovely, outlined well and so easy to follow and comprehend, very relaxing and pleasant soft instrumental music that didn't deter from learning! Many videos get thumbs down in my book simply because they are raucous and chaotic. I've shared this video already, and I look forward to learning more from your creativity. Thanks!
It’s amazing to see how you’ve grown but I still love all your old videos. 💜
excellent! thank you very much! I'm making my first one today. I'm excited.
best one ive watched.. the straw trick is very clever
these videos are amazing, i cant stop searching around for things to make my own, i used to do little sealed aquariums with all sorts of life inside from various lakes and ponds
This is the bright beautiful and nature loving side of CZcams that I'm glad I discovered!
Thanks for sharing it with us. It is a great piece of work!
Superb Terrariums SerpaDesign
I just went to buy everything for a cactus one!! I am so excited. Thank you for all the info
Glad I found your channel. You're a great guy. Thanks for the fantastic content.
I love your channel. All I've been doing for the past 3 days is watching all your terrarium videos. Super informative and educational. two thumbs way up!
Wow
I love the straw trick... Pretty simple idea ...but I hadn't thought about it.
I love the way you work!!! And... not a small thing... your choice of music is wonderful. Very informative. I actually think I could do this after watching you! Your esthetic sense is great too!
I’ve just found your channel, so I’m randomly watching the old & the new. I’m so glad you’ve done so well & that you are still making videos.

Wow I have been watching your youtube for the last several months and its its wonderful following your fevelopment throught the last seven years. You are an amazing artist and extremely talented. I find your posts very relaxing and informative.
I don’t know why but it makes me so happy you say soil and not dirt! There’s a difference!
This is very cute. Super different from how I make succulent terrariums, but I loved this video as well as listening to your channel on autoplay while I work. Thank you for making these!
Wonderful lesson, and I love the terrarium that you made. Well Done!
Wish I knew about the false bottom when I first tried to make a terrarium, probably would saved them from the root rot. Love this channel!
Absolutely love your videos!!!
Really well done and informative video. I had no idea how much goes into making a terrarium. I was thinking of Christmas gifts but may end up buying. Thank you for taking the time to produce and teach us!
So pretty. I found a couple large cool shape glass with a good size rim so it’ll be easy. $10 each.
This is late spring of 2023...you have really done a great job over the years!

So Beautiful, thanks for sharing.
Hi Tanner, I'm so glad I found you!
Your creations are so inspiring and I am hooked! I am learning so much. I totally overlooked the quarantine rules for Australia (where I am) its a steep learning curve.
I've watch a LOT of your videos in the past couple of days, I'm fascinated by how beautifully neat, tidy and organised your work space is and was hoping you could do a class of your preferred set up and Why you do it that way. I'm wondering about your plant storage, how long they can be stored for, your soil mix storage, decorative sticks and stones etc.
I think you are extraordinarily talented and so generous with your time, knowledge and energy.
Thank you so much,
Louisa
ps: if you have terrarium friends in Australia with advice on supplies, that would be a totally extra bonus to finding this channel. Cheers.
MY GUY DID BIG BRAIN WITH THE DRINKING STRAW
I love this!!!! Great video and awesome tips and ideas!
love, love this!!
