In this video we will look at 10 closed terrarium mistakes that beginners as well as other terrarium enthusiasts make. We will also look at ways in which these can be avoided. Making a terrarium is definitely not a rocket science but keeping some basic concepts in mind will ensure a long term success of your green projects.
These are all based on my experience with building terrariums in a tropical region. Your experience could actually vary based on where you live.
Also many ecosystem enthusiasts believe that a terrarium/ecosystem should not be opened at all and that is perfectly ok from their point of view. I prefer to maintain the aesthetics of my terrariums and also want them to do well in the long term which will not possible without conducting periodic maintenance.
