One other nice item I've been using as plant trays is the thick plastic boot trays, sold during the cold season to place winter boots on them to contain the snow that clinged to the boots. In season, those can be found in hardware stores or, even better, at the Dollar store. They sell for like 5$ each at the Dollar store, most models are rectangular shaped and often I can find some that are about 4ft long by 1.5 to 2ft wide. Basically, they're a good fit for regular 4ft x 2ft shelves, you just need to find the correct model. Been using these for all my plants for at least 8 years now, they're still perfectly fine with no sign of wear. I even used one for watering from below, aka the "tray method" for carnivorous plants like Drosera. But I think they're best used as regular plant trays since they're not that deep, hence don't contain that much water.

How does shipping the unidentified/ undocumented plants and species work out with customs? Surely they have to inspect them for hitchhiking insects and what not right? Even if it’s for conservation purposes, they still have to check things out yeah?
@AnotherWorldTerrariaАй бұрын
Correct. All plants must follow the specified governmental and regulatory processes for permits, inspections, etc. All of my plants are obtained through legitimate sources with proper documentation and shipping, or from friends or contacts.

I would like to try this, does the sound of water dripping get annoying over time?
@AnotherWorldTerrariaАй бұрын
Never bothered me but I kept it in a spot where I wasn't subjected to the sound constantly. I wouldn't put it somewhere like a bedroom or near a TV. But I think most people would get used to it and kind of zone it out.
@teleguy5699Ай бұрын
What bothers me is; I was told and read that terrariums are low maintenance and easy for beginners. I bought all the equipment for one and now I have to wait almost a year in quarantine before i can plant.🤨 Seems not worth it. Who knows if i will even care a year from now with no results to see.? There has got to be a easier way to get started. Also, does moss really need to be quarantined for 9 months too if you buy from a reputable company?
@AnotherWorldTerrariaАй бұрын
I understand your concern. Quarantine is a preference, it is NOT required. Each person has to decide on their comfort level for the risk involved. For most people making simple terrariums with common plants, skipping quarantine is probably fine. Quarantine is more for very rare plants and large collections where the spread of pests and disease could be catastropic. In other words, you get to decide if / how much quarantine you want, and how simple or complex the hobby is. I think you should just make your terrarium and go for it without a quarantine. The goal is to have fun! Again, with the moss, not necessary for you to quarantine.

@@AnotherWorldTerraria Thank you so much for your reply. And I can understand what you mean about quarantine for rare plants and having such a huge garden and investment. It has relieved me to know that I can keep my journey going, knowing that there might be hiccups along the way, but as a newbie to this hobby, I can seek some instant rewards. When I was learning guitar, someone stated, "learn songs or you'll start getting bored". I equate that to building my first terrarium. Get one built or soon you will become bored. I've learned a lot from your blogs and videos. Thank you for you hard work and quick response.

do you have a recommendation for a humidity/hydrometer to put in an enclosure that is waterproof? I have 2 vivosun gauges with a probe and if the probe gets misted, it quits working! Vivosun told me the probe isn't waterproof! seems silly to make a product to be in a grow tent that is not waterproof - just misting the probe a bit ruins it!!!
@AnotherWorldTerraria2 ай бұрын
A hygrometer cannot be completely waterproof because it requires that air can reach the sensor. It would be best to avoid misting the sensor. Depending what you have the sensor in, you might try to put something over it to shield it from the spray, but that might affect the readings a bit.

Do you think it is possible to sterilize fern spores with sodium hypochlorite? Another thing I'm wondering is how you manage to keep the substrate in a closed container, without mold developing and without having sterilized it first.
@AnotherWorldTerraria3 ай бұрын
I can't say about the fern spores. I have never heard of someone sterilizing spores. I think there's less chance of issues with the spores vs a seed in terms of fungal / bacterial. As far as substrate, that's a good question. The ingredients I use are all relatively clean , and I don't store them "wet," I mix them and then moisten them. Further, bark and sphagnum are very resistant to fungal growth. You could certainly sterilize the substrate if you wanted to (I think most people do that for growing fern spore, if that's your interest). For the palm seed substrate, I just didn't think it was necessary. The seed was important because it has a bit of soft stuff on the seed which can tend to decay and then it can grow fungus or bacteria (from the fruit stuff) Hopefully that all makes sense and answers your questions

Try to wash the fresh frond with water and a tiny bit of dish soap... Rinse off thoroughly, let it dry and then harvest the spore. You can use photo lens cleaning paper to separate spore from spore cases.

Beautiful build! Could I ask your advice on mold in a terrarium ? I built a terarium a few days ago, and it already has white mold on the decorative wood branches. Can it hurt the plants? Would it subside? I already have springtails but they dont help much... Would sincerely appreciate any advice!
@AnotherWorldTerraria4 ай бұрын
It depends on the type of wood. Some wood is not suitable for terrariums and will continuously mold and rot forever. If you used a hardwood / suitable wood, then the mold will eventually die down. Isopods are also a big help. The mold should not hurt plants unless they are small and it envelops them
@CrookedSteph4 ай бұрын
Out of curiosity, do you wear gloves to protect you from the plants? Or them from you? Do you change them between contact from bin to bin, or species to species? OR…are they to prevent you from getting some nematode or helminth under your nails, then into your body? Lastly, do you ever worry about breathing in the spores of fungus’ or molds? Do you protect your lungs? Wear eye protection? These are 100% serious questions. Ha ha. I’m a super huge germ freak and I’m starting the terrarium/ isopod hobby and sometimes that little microscopic world gives me the heebee geebeez! P.S. I’m a nurse, so my brain ALWAYS takes me to worst case scenarios and I see the wicked illnesses caused by “things” we can’t see, everyday.
@AnotherWorldTerraria4 ай бұрын
@CrookedSteph The main reasons I wear gloves are: - Protect myself from things which are in the plants and soil (pathogens, parasites, irritating chemicals, etc) - Allow me to work with pesticides, chemicals, fertilizers, etc without harming my skin - I have dry, sensitive skin so it's best to have that extra barrier anyway - Help prevent spreading pests and disease from one plant or area to another When going from one bin or tent to another, I often "wash my hands" with the gloves on, using soap and isopropyl alcohol. If I handle a plant or work in a bin which I feel has something really sketchy, I will sometimes throw the gloves away, or wash and sterilize them thoroughly and let them dry while I put on a new pair to continue working with other plants. Many of the molds found in plant bins and soil are relatively harmless to people unless they have an extreme sensitivity or are in constant contact with them. If there is adequate air movement and ventilation and the habitat within the container is "healthy" then there isn't a lot to worry about. That said, I try to avoid sticking my face right inside a bin or container which has been sealed for a long time, or if I see a significant amount of mold or anything else which looks sketchy. Yes, I do wear goggles when working with plants and soil. I just like that extra layer of protection from parasites, pathogens, and eye injuries due to dirt or chemicals.

RH varies throughout the day from 90 up (Probably higher than it should be for some of the plants, but reducing the RH dries the plants out faster, and most plants are doing fine). Night temps are close to whatever the ambient room is, and day temps are ambient plus about 10F
