Secretos para mantener tu terrario saludable y vibrante

Secrets to keeping your terrarium healthy and vibrant

First we want to explain to you why terrariums do not need that much maintenance.

A terrarium is an ecosystem encapsulated in a glass or plastic container that simulates a natural habitat for plants and, sometimes, small animals. It functions as a self-contained microcosm, where the water cycle and nutrients are recycled within the system.

The plants in the terrarium release water vapor through transpiration, which then condenses on the walls of the container and is reabsorbed by the plants, creating a continuous cycle. This creates an autonomous, self-managing environment in which plants can thrive with very little maintenance.

In short, Your own oasis within your home, much more than just a glass container with plants; It is a captivating microcosm that transports you to a natural world full of life and beauty.

Taking the above into account, these are the care tips we have for you:

Tip 1: Control humidity. Remember that it is not a pot plant, therefore, it does not need as much water. Maintaining adequate humidity levels within the terrarium is essential. To do this, you can spray water as needed or pour water directly on it, but just a small amount, don't flood it!

Tip 2: Lighting. Depending on the plants you have in your terrarium, it is essential to provide them with the right amount of light. Some plants may need direct sunlight. For example, if you have our Tierra Arida terrarium, a location with direct morning sun is perfect, while if you have our Jardín Verde terrarium, indirect light is perfect for it.

Make sure you place the terrarium in a place where the plants receive the appropriate amount of light according to their needs.

Tip 3: Cleaning and maintenance. It is important to keep the terrarium clean to prevent the growth of unwanted bacteria or mold. This includes removing dead leaves and cleaning the windows. You can do this once a month, spraying water first and then an organic fungicide for plants.

Now that you know the secrets to keeping your terrarium radiant, what are you waiting for to get started? Take the first step towards a greener, more vibrant home. Discover the magic of terrariums and turn your space into an oasis of life and freshness!
