A Video tutorial on how to make a terrarium in ten minutes. I also call this the "Zen Terrarium" because of its simplicity. I explain container selection, plant selection and show you how to make it. Lots more terrarium stuff on my website at:

  • I want to use this for my fly trap. Do I still need the moss? Thanks for the video. :)

  • @42Kissess nope, you don't need the moss. good luck and have fun!

  • @epicfantasy - I know that some terrariums need a layer of charcoal underneath. Which plants is this best for? and also, is it true that the charcoal has to be "activated"?

  • @gks0682 Sensitive plants benefit the most from the charcoal. plants that need cleaner water. And it definitely has to be activated. you can buy it in aquarium stores and pet shops. Otherwise the charcoal will contaminate the water rather than purify it.

  • Does it need to have an air hole?

  • @AReptileMan Nope, it can be sealed right up. but you have to watch it closely for a week or two to be sure you have the right amount of water in there.

  • You could easily get the rocks from Dollar General in the gardening section...for only $1. I bought a fittonia for only 2.50 (Walmart), my jar cost 5.99 from TJ Maxx, moss cost 2.49 from Michael's, and soil I got from my parents, lol. So it was relatively cheap and fun to do, lol. To be honest I was a bit frazzled at first because of how messy it was and I had to change the arrangement around about 3 times...
