  • Sometimes these people have no clue what they are doing. You need diminutive plant ( as opposed to young plants that will outgrow their small space). Moss thrives in humid CO2- rich environments, not w/ succulents.

    Open containers: succulents and cacti prefer arid conditions, indirect light, & lots of ventilation. Closed containers:Choose humidity-tolerant, shade-loving plants such as ferns, ivies, and begonias. Remove the lid when too much condensation occurs; replace to retain moisture. For m

  • you can't put succulents in closed terrariums...

  • I do have a Q tho. Theres are these rly fool pink purple and blue multiple color mushrooms growing out behind my house they r so pretty ((no o dnt mean that in a druggie way)) and I want to grow them in a terrarium is that possible?

  • Me gusta mucho!!!! Totally awesome bid I've got alot of plants but never thought if the glass thing I'm soooo going that I'm sure my plants will be happier once I do :)

  • 2:39 looks really creepy

  • I love how she calls the plant a him :))

  • I know it's an old video, but I have a question. I made one and the roots grew so much the busted the glass. Is there anyway to stop that from happening?

  • @jnifr remove the old plants, then make a new one.. :)

  • guys these are bored MILF!!!!

  • How do you keep the plant from molding?

  • wait, so is that carbon stuff necessary? do i need it or can the plant live without it?

  • great video, i learned a lot, thanks :)

  • perfect for a bedside table.. cute!

  • I'm sorry... ADDish... What in the world is that white thing in the background?????

  • Do you think this would work with edible herbs?

    I'm thinking of moving and I think this would be a good option for a herb garden in an apartment

  • @Givemetetris i like your idea here and was thinking the same as i was watching it! wonder if she answered u cuz i didnt see it of she did

  • i have windows vista thought i would share

  • windows 7 user here :3

  • vista is ok, its just that it uses way more resources, if you ever have a chance, try windows 7 on your pc, it will fly!

  • i have a vista it works great

  • lalala

    that's really funny (to me) that you said that X3

  • Well, it does. I spent so much money on it and it can't do a thing without overheating or just failing.

  • that's a shame, i'm sorry about that :P

    i would've gone and hxc complained at the people in the mac store about it

  • it works but there are a lot of programs that don't work with it I have it and I have a lot of downloading problems

  • Comment removed

  • You SHOULD use gloves when using potting mix.. as it can make you very very sick....

  • It's also kind of nasty when it gets under your finger nails

  • ...and on your kitchen table

  • I didn't think about it, but your right. Having this stuff where you eat isn't exactly smart. Maybe she should get a workbench

  • FYI: all cacti are succulents, but not all succulents are cacti.

    the term 'cactus' refers to the family of plants. the term 'succulents' refers to its ability to retain water in arid environments....

  • Clock, I'm not even sure who you are replying to. What motivated me to comment, was not you personally, but your hypocritical attack on good people. You can't live a modern life without being entangled in large corporations. As to my reasoning, I don't even have to defend that. I like to think for myself, I don't need to torrent anything, or look to others for my beliefs or ideals.

  • I actually find it a shame that you can't just realize we are all on the same team. I don't want to make an enemy of you, I would rather be making friends in the spirit of conservation and good stewardship of our lovely Earth. And come on, don't you think it's just a little cool, that our peeps at Threadbanger, are using "The Man" as a tool for eco-revolution? lol, I do. Can't we just "shake hands" like adults and agree to disagree?

  • those jars look like condoms lol!

  • lol they do.

  • can u make a tutorial about the t shirt your wearingi love the collar

  • I have to defend Meg here. First, the top hat she was wearing cast a shadow on her eyes & that's why she looked tired! She doesn't have Martha's lighting budget! As it is she gets shit for having an ad,(like anyone would turn down a chance to make money doing what they love!)Second, she was holding her dog, that may be small, must weigh 20ish pounds, so she had to lean back to support him one-handed! Meg has never been anything but sweet and positive, if you can't return in kind: MOVE ON! <3 Meg

  • You are awesome Ehsona!

  • :) Your name is awesome!

  • MarthaF... your name is awesome, my reply button isn't working... I am actually trying to get a terrarium going. Has anyone had any luck yet? I can't find a good source for the little plants :(

  • i made one little moss terrarium, and it's going just fine! i water it once a month and keep it in a place with light but not in direct sunlight. i took moss drom the woods, along with some dirt! :-J

  • Does anyone know where you can find those sheets of dry moss? I make Bonsai tres but have never been able to get moss to attach or live.

  • A marijuana plant would look killer in one of those. ( please no immature replies )

  • you mean in the tirraniums?

    yeah that would look pretty cool.

    but in the dome ones.

  • Man I love Decor It Yourself.

    Congratulations, but I hope you'll be back soon!

  • congrats on tie-ing the knot! enjoy your luna de miel!

  • THANK YOU! it's pretty awesome to be put into your this week's DIY

    =]

  • My friend just bought some jars JUST like that and is looking for nice ways to decorate her new dorm room! :D

    This is perfect because you don't have to water them often, so it's perfect for a freshman college-goer! I totally just sent this video to her. :3

  • reminds me of penelope :]

  • Really cool episode! I LOVED hearing about terrariums. And way to help out the shelters. really great stuff.

  • cool i should try this. :) thanks for the video.

  • Wow, now I'm interested in terrarium :) Thanks DIY Threadbanger!

  • Stop disrespecting the hottie!

  • hottie, what are you 40 and devoriced?

  • WTF! I'm only 15

  • Donate to and volunteer at your local shelter! WORD.

  • Terrariums are the best because they look so high-design and complicated, and yet are super-low-maintenance.

  • This was my favorite Quick Tip. Thank you for helping shelters!

  • just skip the commercial you moron

  • It's not moronic, just sticking to my ethics.

  • gee they have to make money somehow, no money can = no vids, so ungreatful

  • Exactly. Believe me, we (Rob, Corinne & I) don't like that any advertising has to happen on here, but it is the nature of the beast. If we had no funding, we couldn't bring DIY, green videos to you. It's the trade-off. Thanks for understanding markanddana.

    xox, Meg

  • Not ungrateful, was one of my favorite channels, talented people and they make great stuff. I just don't support this action ethically so will have to go without. Have a good one.

  • they need funding.

    its not cheap or fast to make videos and take time out of your day to

    do a DIY project,

    record the event,

    record your voice telling the instructions, edit the video.

    and sometimes they have travelled, going to convenvtions or visitng viewers or other DIY people.

    oh, and keeping up with the site, and forum.

    without the funding money the vids wouldnt be as cool or helpful and maybe not here at all. as well as the site/forum.

  • ChuckHitler,

    I'm sorry, but I don't believe that accepting funding from large corporations is helpful to the DIY movement.

    I think finding another way would be more appropriate (and completely realistic).

    I'm not demonizing them, I just have my morals that I stick to (it is a personal choice, if people have a problem with that it is just the attempt to reduce dissonance, I'm not telling everyone to unsub or anything).

  • Well, the way I see it, as long as theyre not accepting it from...like mega-clothe brand. Cause sometimes, they dont even have commercials. and when they do, its a commercial for another website/ another youtube channel/ something irrelevant to DIY (as far as clothes &furniture) like microsoft.

    altough, it is possible to make your own computer.

    but anyway, I didn't think it was a big deal, but i know what you mean. i'm just happy they're spreading with word about DIY.

  • ChuckHitler, "To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou can not then be false to any man." - Shakespeare(Hamlet)

  • Then YOU fund the fucking show. How do you think small companies do anything? In this recession, sorry,t he fact is you have to have a sponsor.

  • Umm...from what you said I thought you were replying to Clockworkforest, but it appeared in my comment replies so I'm asking anyway.

  • Unless you're willing to personally fund these projects; you have no place criticizing someone. Do you drive a car? I bet it wasn't made by sheer force of self-righteous indignation! I wager it was made by-- A LARGE CORPORATION!!! LOL: "glass houses" man, it's easy to look down on others, not so easy to hold yourself to those same unreasonable standards, is it? Lighten up, if you want to make a difference, Do It Yourself! (pun intended!) Your intentions seem genuine, just misplaced.

  • Ehsona, self-righteous indignation? Looks more like what motivated your comment to me.

    Your point and example are severely lacking in reason and motivated by group think, I have ethics I follow, it's a personal choice. I'm not an extremist against corporations. Get over it.

    IMO they could have found a more appropriate way to fund these videos. I stand by that, you go ahead and be you and I will be me.

    Try and torrent a copy of information dystopia by ractalfece.

  • That's what I meant. I didn't mean they funding was completely okay, but I also didn't mean to cut funding completely.

    Like I said, they're being funded by MIcrosodt, not fucking Wal*Mart. Wal*Mart would've been totally hypocritical.

    And you said before you didn't like funding by big coroporations why are you saying funding is okay now? If you're okaying with funding by little or irrelevant corporations then why didn't you say something when I brought it up?

  • Well think of it this way, they're just using those companies to get the DIY movement up on top. Eventually those sponsorships will be pointless becuase people won't be pay attention to them anymore.

    Not that it matters cause most of their funding comes from companies that have little or nothing to do with DIY, as far as clothes and furniture.

    I mean if they were being funded by GAP or OLD NAVY I would've been like "WHAT THE FUCK?!"

  • I understand why you find the microsoft sponsorship as fine, I respect your decision for yourself.

    Have you seen Century of the Self? Did we already go through that?

    I think they could have done something really clever to support these vids instead of going with the status quo, and hope that some day they choose to.

    Other than that, there really is no point in arguing with me about it. This was months ago and I'm a stubborn bastard.

  • congratulations!!!!!

    thank you for these great shows!!

  • I'll miss your show, but have a great wedding!

  • Congrats, and have a great honeymoon

  • congrats meg!!!!!! you guys better have babies soon, cuz they will be soooooo cute!!!!

  • It would be awesome if she was. I doubt though. Pregnant women usually have a certain glow about them and she does seem tired but the tired stage should come later in the pregnancy.

    Anyways, CONGRATS MEG!!!!!!

    Have fun on your honeymoon!

  • Um, are you UsEffingWeeklyn because I don't appreciate being called FAT when I am trying to make cool videos for you. NOT cool, dude. Not cool.

    No I am not pregnant, and I have a pretty tight stomach, thank you very much. So please read PerezHilton or something and attack JLo instead.

    -Not-Knocked-Up Meg

  • I wasn't trying to offend you,I'm a huge fan of you.I was just worried and good luck on the wedding!
