Making A Terrarium For FREE!

In this video I’ll show you how I make a terrarium for free using collected plants, moss, soil and stones. Even the glassware was free meaning this terrarium cost a grand total of £0! This is an easy terrarium to make and in this terrarium guide, I will thoroughly explain the process from start to finish. Making bottle gardens doesn’t get easier than this.

I named some of the mosses I used but I'm not 100% sure about them. If you know what they are, comment below!

[@khti1097]

Appreciate the fact that you are concerned about sustainable usage

[@alyssabethguerra7820]

I found your channel yesterday, and literally did this project last night! It was way more satisfying to challenge myself with items I already had/ natural surroundings.

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Awesome Alyssabeth! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@almaenriquez5653]

You and SerpaDesign are my two favorite terrarium channels ❤❤❤❤ You produce quality and wholesome content. Much love from USA! (I promise it's not that scary over here 🤣🤣)

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Thanks Alma. I Love the USA, I've been twice! Once in 2006 where I went to California and in 2009 where I went to NYC. Next time I want to visit Oregon 🙂

[@almaenriquez5653]

@@WorcesterTerrariums NY and California. Two awesome states full of good food and just all around nice places to visit!! Oregan is awesome. So much fun. Oregan and Washington state have wonderful hiking trails and the mountains and trees are so beautiful. Hope you can visit soon 😁

Thanks Ancor!

Cool build. Looks like plume moss or pocket moss (fissidens limbatus or dubiuos) at 2:00

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Thanks mate 👍

[@cynthiamorris9439]

I really enjoy your videos. You have a calming voice!!! Looking forward to your next one. Do you think Africa violets would do ok in a Terrarium? Thanks 😊✌🏼

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Thanks! They absolutely do but I've never had much luck with them. Apparently getting their leaves wet is a bad idea

[@Anne-pj7ny]

I like your videos! This is cool!

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Thank you Anne!

[@divolino]

Most interesting, the making of a Terrarium for Free episode. Days have passed, a year has gone by, may i enquire, how is the vitality of the then Cost-Free Terrarium. i wish both You & The Terrarium all the success.

[@dennisenser8422]

Love your channel! I did use some moss from north side of my home and it is doing well in terrarium but I have noticed there are small flies/gnats flying around now. Is terrarium ruined or is there anything I can do to kill flies/larve?

[@superbolli1]

Cool video, I would be interested in seeing a plantless terrarium, where you collect only wild soil with no plants and see what pops up.

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

That's actually a great idea. Thanks!

[@trippyhippy2110]

@@WorcesterTerrariums Something else I'd mention, if you don't wash off the wild plants or anything else going in, those hitchhikers might actually make for a perfect ecosystem. Sometimes there's small millipedes, centipedes or other predators that will prey on smaller animals that will also be in that system like isopods so their numbers don't go out of control.

[@trippyhippy2110]

Those same isopods will help with decaying plant matter just like springtails, and help the ecosystem self sustain.

[@LukinsNotmanMusic]

What is your recommended light intensity for a terrium? Great video very informative

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

200-400 footcandles! 🙂

[@Drumgobonk08]

I did this today when I emailed this guy about if there was a way to this for free 10/10

[@simongriffiths5261]

I can't get haircut moss to take at all >.< Tried it in several terrariums (insectariums) and it always dies! I'm at around 90% humidity, medium light, and 20C. Grows great in my garden lol

[@plantterra5921]

Where are u from, so I know if the moss is grow in my region to

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Worcester, England!

[@elenaagapiou2386]

Can i use normal soil from the woods? I read that i can bake the soil in the oven at 200 degrees for 15 minutes or can i also use indoor plant soil?

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

I wouldn't bake soil at all or use indoor plant soil. It's definitely best to use specific terrarium soil

[@aiarafat]

Is it necessary to press the moss hard against the substrate? Is it a problem if the bottom soil of the moss isn't touching the substrate completely but partially?

[@WorcesterTerrariums]

Hi Arif, I wouldn't say it's important to press it hard but you'll want to firm it in place.

I have Windows but no jars can you help me with glass blowing? Enjoyed the vid thx
