Make a Cactus Terrarium - How To Terrarium ep. 4

[@HaloMadness007]

never thought i'd binge watch terrarium videos. you just earned yourself a loyal fan, great shit, maynge

[@goblinking3151]

Same, rad.

[@rootsnurserycapecod4564]

HaloMadness007 I’ve done the same

[@clarencebarbour3745]

Yep! I could listen to hi, talk about terrariums all day

[@hem138]

Two years later same thing happened with me, man. New to this channel. Already loving it.

[@ryn_2396]

Bruh why is this happening to me 😂😂😂

[@TheAughoti]

I love the video. As a gardener I have one suggestion. Plants always look better when planted in odd numbers. 1, 3 or 5 plants would have looked better.

[@SerpaDesign]

Thanks for the suggestion! I will keep it in mind next time around.

[@rubenskiii]

Great tip! I've heard it before, the human brain sees things without a pattern as more "raw" and nature like while even numbers and patterns are seen as logical, structured and more human. Also, in nature almost nothing has straight lines or really sharp 90degree-like corners. we see straight lines as "unnatural". That's why tankers put brushes on their tanks, not to just turn it into a giant roaring bush, but mainly to break up the sharp lines which will get noticed by an human eye if not covered up... :)

[@bongbreaker7404]

Then You Would Also Need An Odd Number Of Terrariums Or You Would Have An Even Number Of Plants... So This Terrarium With The Four Cacti Would Look Good Next To One Other Terrarium With Three Cacti. For A Total Of 7 Cacti.... Hmmmmm... Its Like My Neighbor Planted Five Trees At Our Property Line... It Messes Up Everything... Makes It Too Complicated, I Think You Should Just Do What You Want.... That Being Said... Ha Ha... We Did Learn The Odd Number Rule In Every Art Class I Took.

[@hearditallbefore6782]

I am so in love with my new discovery. Previously had no real interest in growing. Bought an aloe plant from my neighbor after his wife passed bcuz he wasn't taking care of it. I researched how to care for it, got the cactus mix soil & now it's so gorgeous and healthy and tall. She's had 4 babies alreardy. I call them babies & I love em😊. Anyway, now that I've discovered terrariums, I'm hooked. I will be doing this. It's so dope.

[@clowneryjohnson5208]

i gasped when you just grabbed the cacti out of their pots tbh :O

[@narkolumagg7468]

Spicy Meme ikr and when he held onto them I was like biting my knuckle xD

[@bookkrworm]

I wore garden gloves when I planted mine, and I still got spines in my hands.

[@Airenu]

5 years have passed already. This was one of the first videos I've watched. I'm curious, do you still have this terrarium? Would love to see an update.

[@ValiThe]

Same!

[@geosantafe]

this is the best explication that I have seen. I'm from Argentina, I don't understand much explanation because of english, but the video and their images were very clear. you are a genius in this!

[@octypie211]

I love how he just GRABS THE CACTI WITHOUT GETTING HURT

[@sai63836]

The ultimate chad

[@catgames1387]

He as god

[@SerpaDesign]

Stay tuned for next weeks episode, you don't want to miss it!

[@TheLostOne172]

SerpaDesign can you make a carnivorous plant terrarium?

[@lemon420]

@TheLostOne 172 he made it by now

[@harperjohnston8911]

Hey, I'd definitely recommend using a brush (a toothbrush or a makeup brush, something with soft bristles) to get soil off of plants, that way you won't be blowing outside soil everywhere.

[@emmanuelflantz9192]

I dont know a lot of things, but i do know youtube. and you sir, deserve at least 75,000 more subs.

[@PipeSmokingBoardgamer]

AGREED!!!

[@HmineCrafter]

The only problem is larger channels are harder to keep a healthy community.

[@klapp4773]

You mean a million

[@davesdepaves]

I wanted to subscribe after your comment but forgot I already did...

[@TheSeptemberRose]

I lived in Arizona for a year and I fell in LOVE with the desert environment! Getting glochids in my fingers hurts though, that's why I don't grow them.

[@seanchancellor6861]

You just grabbed them... I get spines in my hands just by looking at mine....

[@toro_caspi4191]

Yea, I really hate those little invisible spines that stay in your hands and cause so much pain.

[@the404error7]

@@toro_caspi4191 it's like a splinter

[@southpark.obsessed3384]

I can do that with all my cactus except one little bitxx a sliver ball cactus the hook at the skin and it’s a pain in the axx

[@GabrielGuzman18]

Meee🤣🤣

[@Asdfgqedfglo]

Same here!! That’s why I’m making a terrarium so they stop stabbing me!

[@GreyRock100]

1:18 That's what my terrarium looks like.

[@TimZoet]

I wheezed

[@filippoarlenghi6247]

AHAHAHAH

[@mysteryfan15]

I appreciate that you value the plant needs over aesthetics. I have seen some beautiful plantings that I know are never going to last due to the conditions they are in. Great videos and great series!

[@iksarguards]

“Sand or something similar” ....*reaches for granulated sugar*

[@SpyWilliam123]

Could you start making small aquariums kinda how you make your terrariums? Maybe with water springtails, freshwater snails, and aquatic plants?

[@moxxy3565]

Idk how or why I started watching your videos but here I am after a month building my first terrarium.

[@poopycaitlin]

I could seriously listen to your voice all day. Screen idea is excellent for maintaining layers. With these glass terrariums, you can keep an eye on moisture in the bottom and mist like you are with a spray bottle lightly 2 days in a row rather than water so much it goes to the bottom. Wonderful video!

[@passero9858]

The best cactus terrarium in KZbin I think. I love your creations.

[@desertsage7]

That being said, this dude gives zero f's about having cactus hands

[@waffle8364]

The ones he picks are actually not that pokey. Some poke more but they feel more fuzzy, of course you don't want to tighten your grip on them but they really are quite tame versus wild caci

[@michellechapman8738]

I was thinking the same thing!!😂😂😂

[@AcePilotZach]

If you're gentle yet just the right amount of firm, you can easily handle most cacti without a prick.

[@suekleinman6737]

Outstanding, I never had much luck with cacti but I'm going to give this a try.

[@Coopercaroline2000]

I just looooove your videos!!! I never thought I’d be watching (or should I say binge watching !) terrarium videos!!! But here I am!!!! I’m sooooooooo inspired to make them once I’m done renovating my home!!! Thank you for such great content!!! 😊👍🙏❤️😉

[@ЛарисаЛариса-д5о]

Браво, супер 👏 люблю кактусы и суккуленты, МОЛОДЕЦ 👏 КРУТО, много чего почерпнула для себя! Очень красиво 😍

[@tinuflint393]

You sir are a brave man and mean business with those cactuses!!! Well done!!!

[@bongogogogo]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I made an amazing cactus terrarium today and these tips were really helpfully and gave me a look to work around other mine. Really good video, but I found a thin soft paintbrush I had never used was a bit more efficient and less messy at cleaning the cacti, but that could just be my clumsiness. great video!

[@JessicaPancake2]

Omg watching you grab those cacti bare handed have me the shivers! Great video though I’ve been loving these terrarium videos!! And the straw trick is a life saver for houseplants too!

[@johnmar4336]

SerpaDesign, Hands of Steel

[@eliclarke24]

I think this would probably be a really nice way to grow cacti in climate where you can't really grow cactus, and regulate the microclimate better than you could otherwise. Like the reverse of a greenhouse in the desert. I love this!!!

[@annananna1331]

I'm suffering just looking at you touching all of those cacti. I have plenty of those and I can literally feel the pain as it was mine! Expecially the dotted ones...

[@SerpaDesign]

Anna Turroni Lol! It didn't hurt that bad, I have pretty tough skin thankfully.

[@funnytime1111]

Seriously, the options are the nastiest and the hardest to remove because they’re so small!!

[@bread-guy001]

Anna Nanna the minuscule spines are called glochids.

[@wxlurker]

Allison Sedar Agreed! I had them stuck in my hand once and I couldn’t get them out due to how small they were. i learnt better and invested in nitrite gloves soon after.

[@jage5256]

I did one exactly like this only with smaller cactus with three and a few cactus that look like balls. They grow together and actually moved closer to each other. I also used charcoal with the false bottom. I've made another one in a square dish with three cactus. The like the little lamps I turn on 8-10 hours daily. I need to make more. So relaxing🤗 subscribed

[@addiebrice6001]

Your voice is soothing and the video is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes.

[@analuisa1214]

Look at these beautiful cactus! I have only one tiny cactus, I am trying to make it grow (it stoped, I guess the recipient was small), so I moved it into a bigger recipient a few days ago, in a few days (I guess) I am going to see some results!

[@annadeleon8622]

Another excellent video!! You are very talented. Wish I could binge watch all of your videos right now.🌵🌵🌵

[@victoriaclose7212]

great vid!! I have a suggestion for cacti/succulent terrariums. I actually keep the plants in the plastic container (or a slightly larger one) and then just put gravel-type material below and all around it. Thank way any water that comes out the bottom of the plastic pots goes into the gravel and evaporates more easily instead of just staying stuck in a false bottom the way it can with a if theres a thick layer entirely of soil. and of course I put the topdressing high enough to cover the tops of the plastic pots!

[@ivyisgreeen]

The point of a false bottom is to evaporate it slowly so that there is less maintenance, also that can lead to root rot

[@brittanykendall6312]

Great video! So far it's been the most helpful/ enjoyable I've come across :)

[@damndanno1181]

Hey man this may seem kinda weird but can you tell me what kind of gravel you're using at 4:00

[@runshanonrun9195]

How is that weird?

[@BleuIndustriesCleaning]

Amazing arrangement!!! My favorite thus far. Going to search for a clear bowl now! Been thinking of consolidating my cacti’s into one pot! This was a great demonstration thanks for sharing!!

[@arkdynosaur3025]

Dude you should sell these I would buy one!

[@catto1003]

So cool ! This really helps me for my school assignment ! Thanks !!

[@boniboni4912]

Thanks I always see tiny cacti super cheap and I have an empty glass container similar to this one so know I’m gonna try this!!! So cute!

[@Hussain-p9h2s]

Your vids are the only kind of videos i watch every day

[@Neuyasha1]

I want to add, to anyone who may watch this. Do not just spray water on your cacti. A lot of them can rot if they get water on their leaves. I recommend gently pouring water on the surface, trying not to spash water on the cacti. However, if this were an outdoor setup do as you please. In closing I really love this design and thinking about doing someing similar with my cacti and succulants. :)

[@anneneeb7742]

I cant stop watching your great videos!!! You are so knowledgeble. I was wondering where you buy some of the containers for the closed terrariums.Keep up the good work. Keep making your great videos. Thanks.

[@lolasnyder4567]

As an avid designer I have a couple of suggestions that I’ve learned planning rooms and such that could definitely be helpful for your terrariums as well. My mom always talks about how things generally look better in groups of 3 or 5. From what I gather this is because 2 and 4 often look to organized/ planned out. As well as doing this, it will also make them look less crowded. The appeal aesthetically of cacti is how simple they are. By over crowding your terrariums, you can lose some of this.

[@dtmctech]

Great video, thanks for sharing the knowledge. I haven't read all the comments but just in case it wasn't mentioned, a can of compressed air would work well for cleaning also.

[@LiveLaughSmile]

So beautiful! Very professional! Thank you!

[@dancemontec]

I'm gonna do these for christmas gifts this year!!!! So excited to get creative

[@juangomez-moreno4068]

I really like your videos...your instructions are very clear and your projects fun to watch! Thanks for all the help!!!

[@jeremibren5565]

Awesome cacti terrarium with clear jar

[@LikodsaPayag]

fantastic arts design sir...thanks a lot for sharing :)

[@laurencoogs]

So beautiful! Now I want to terrarium. Thank you for the amazing content!!

[@nicholasscholz829]

Thank you for your video! New to this stuff and was wondering if sandbox sand could substitute as the top layer for desert sand?

[@bennyc409]

That being said, this was an enjoyable video.

[@ultimaraza6251]

Ok thanks. I just picked some up👍. great videos btw.

[@yihengzhou2676]

You sounds asleep but it suits the vibe of the vid, love

[@raphaelmenelaou9201]

Amazing i wanna also do,just one question ,in the false bottom why do we need to add a mesh on the gravel?

[@fulltimemar]

That was sooooo cool!! It looks like a mini desert, i bet if i had this beautiful terrarium my sons will want to play with their cowboys in it! Hahahah u rock!! Xo marce!

[@morganm.6256]

fulltimemar your son is so cute!!

[@whales0ng]

Aww!

[@lunaradic5075]

I love your videos So glad i found you channel

[@easy_dude7545]

Sir, I just want to know one thing, doest it need any fertilizers in long run??

[@TheRealGobfather]

Koushik Sarkar no

[@bread-guy001]

Koushik Sarkar I would, get a nice low first number high second and third number and fertilize often during spring and summer, Lower in fall and none in winter.

[@CRX-F6R]

I have a question, sparked by the intro: Is it possible to create a terrarium that produces a mist/fog or use a fog in a terrarium without interrupting the sustainability?

[@scarbine1396]

Carnifex You could probably make a terrarium that makes fog, but it has to be sealed.

[@itswednesdayscrewironing7576]

You, Mr Cactus Jack, are a genius! 🤓

[@danielleroy7744]

This is a great tutorial! I can’t wait to get started. Thank you!

So simple, yet so beautiful!

[@lyndakirkness5415]

Very good teaching. Perfect to follow.

[@indiighoul]

hey so my house has barely any plants except two succulents and some flowers/saplings we keep outside so i made some cuttings from a succulent and i'm keeping an eye on them 😊 my oldest cutting has started growing tiny roots ☺️

[@dklindsey1952]

Very cool and fun. Thanks!

[@ashwathiyer4485]

Loved the Demonstration! I'm starting out on mine after watching this! Please keep posting! :)

[@bovko1]

Nice choice of music! That being said, could someone please let me know which artist this is?

[@chanhuangsuan]

Your videos are so detailed and really explains well

[@Zamiiz]

I’ve been wanting to make a nice cactus terrarium for awhile!!! I live in Arizona so to get everything I need I just have to go outside :- )

[@pandabearjourney4623]

your video visual is nice... I didn't feel boring to watch it 'till the end. So relaxing and helpful. Thank you for sharing :)

[@thatrandomkid4224]

i bet the cacti are having a lovely life lol ;)

[@workorangeclock]

Me and my daughter freaked when u grabbed those cacti with your bare hands! How!? We hurt for u, haha! Love your stuff man thanks. Inspired a new family science project! 👍

[@HunLover05]

I love your terrariums! This makes me want to make a desert terrarium but I have a cat that probably wouldn’t leave it alone!

[@BeautifulEarthJa]

I'm gonna make this today! i got cacti and a clear bowl!

[@grimr27]

Very nice looking terrarium..

[@dawnfire47]

This is lovely , you inspired me to try and make one .

[@AydenConner7364]

So anybody watching this in 2024?

[@Radicalxtcx]

Thank you this was very helpful.

[@chasfoster9895]

I followed this template when I found your video about three years ago. Thanks Tanner! People always ask, where I bought it. Judging from the looks I get, I can tell they think I’m fibbing she n tell them I made it.

[@joshuavarney2346]

I've always wanted to make desert themed things like this.

Love your videos! keep up the awesome work!

[@katy9424]

Looks great!

you have an amazing channel keep it up (:

[@Maxi-ux8pk]

Hi !... I'm from Argentina and I speak Spanish, so I have a trouble trying to understand or hear, why do you use the screen window at bottom. Your English is very clear, but I cannot understand very well. Can you explain me typing the "why"?. Thanks a lot, and you have a beautiful channel. :) .. Cheers!!

[@Antenian]

What a total badass.

[@lydvincecruz824]

Beautiful!!!

[@nicoletumminello9004]

Sooo you just gripped that cactus haha I get cactus spikes in my hand all the time just watering them.

[@markokern2682]

Great! Do water with RO water to spots on the glass?

[@The-peanuts]

I love it.

[@TheArmored123]

would be perfect with a snake or squirrel skull

[@Kracken11111]

I like the cactus, they look great

[@kennethcharlesdelarosaberm2674]

your videos are really really helpful. tnx man.

[@LittleSpaceCase]

Usually I only water my potted cacti every two weeks in the summer, and every 3 in the winter. Can probably do more if you live in a hot dry place, but the humidity where I live is too much

[@AnnaFernandezEsq]

Good stuff! Thank you!

[@Ami2727jags]

I was surprised to see a cactus terrarium so similar to the one I have made. A complete coincidence 😳

[@rafiqurrahaman6452]
