Avoid These Terrarium Mistakes To Ensure A Healthy Ecosystem (Closed Terrarium Observations after 4.5 years)
The video covers the journey of my closed terrarium "Forest in a glass jar" built in October of 2019. The terrarium is not in a great shape today and I go back in time to discuss the things I could have avoided or done differently for a much better and long lasting results. I have this opportunity today to share my mistakes and learnings so that you don't have to repeat them.
And yes the container used in the rebuild has a clear or transparent lid/top with a steel rim holding it in place.
Here are the links to the original build video and the two updates:

The urban nemophilist lives in the city but his heart and soul lives in the forest and wherever there is green.
The celebration of colours, the ambient sounds, the mystic scent and the fascinating wildlife that make up the forestlands and waterbodies of our earth is the elixir of his life.
The urban nemophilist attempts to capture all of this through his green art and sustainable gardening activities while his sketching and music sets up the mood for what is nature-appreciation at its best.
His goal is to create awareness on conservation of nature and wildlife through is art and sustainable initiatives.

I'm glad to see you help us learn to manage when things go wrong. Which they do with mine more frequently than success. Thanks you for the effort and time involved in making these clips. I always look forward to them.
You are welcome. Thanks!
One thing I never heard on the internet and had to learn it myself:
Springtails love eating fittonia for some reason. So I guess use the little guys sparingly in fittonia scapes
I feel springtails mostly go for dead and decaying part of the plant not the fresh parts. But again there could be many unknown facts and theories. Thanks for sharing
love your builds and these mistakes were mde video are very important, thank you for sharing, still haven't made any pots, but I bought/found a nice jar hehe
Glad you like the content. Thanks!
Thanks for your videos! Very relaxing to sit back and watch you create something beautiful. 😊
Thank you
Great design ❤! And thank you for sharing your experience🌷. I use Dracaena draco instead of regular driftwood and it works well
Thank you and also thanks for sharing your choice of hardscape
Love watching your videos. Your builds are beautiful and the wonderful information that has been extremely helpful.
Thank you
I have a cylinder glass just like this one. It has a whole defect in the bottom, I'm thinking better for draining. I'm going to start drilling with a glass bit on all my terrariums that are small
Wonderful video and the rebuild captured the essence of the previous terrarium. May I ask, is the moss you used riccardia chamedryfolia?
Thank you. Its Hypnum
❤
bhai can you please expalin what is actiivated carbon and what is the difference between the coal that we get in the market
A type of carbon known as “activated charcoal” has undergone particular processing to expand its surface area and improve its capacity to adsorb (not absorb) specific chemicals. Activated charcoal, as opposed to conventional charcoal, has been processed in a way that leaves it with a high surface area and a number of holes and channels on its surface, allowing it to attach to molecules and pollutants in a way that regular charcoal cannot.
Wow
Not a hater. REALLY enjoy yr vids. But why did u continue 2 use the metal lid??
It is a treo jar with a transparent acrylic lid held in place by a steel rim. It’s not opaque. amzn.to/3Qm99mH
@@TheUrbanNemophilist, thank u 4 the QUICK reply🌱
Sir can I use inactivated charcoal in terrarium ?
Yes. However activated carbon is more effective in absorbing the pollutants.
@@TheUrbanNemophilist You mean inactived charcoal will work fine but not as activated
Hola, cómo esterilizas las plantas ?
With H2O2 1:30 with water
1 parte de H2O2 en 30 de agua? Eso significa 1:30 ? Muchas gracias 😘
