    The foam is 30 ppi, not 300 for those who are trying to do the same. Beautiful little wall and inspiring as always

    • @1yellowbutterfly679
      @1yellowbutterfly679 3 роки тому +3

      @dave right, I think it was just a slip of the tongue which is why I left the comment. If you look up 30 ppi you can see its the same foam. As far as I can tell 300 ppi doesn't commonly exist, but if you can find it you'll see that the holes are too small and numerous for it to work well for growing moss.

    Thank you so much for this video. I found your channel earlier this year because I had this same concept in my head. Wife and I started collecting moss and have a bin with its own little micro climate keeping the moss alive. I had the same idea for the watering but hadn't figured out mounting the moss. I wasn't really convinced it would attach so well to a vertical porous surface. :)

    Thanks to this video, I put together my first Terrarium! Turned out just like the video with a few notable exceptions.
    1) I had a hard time getting the moss to stick in the cut slots of foam so I used dabs of superglue gel instead and it's been working well.
    2) I installed a lamp switch to the motor cable when I spliced it to put it through the box. This makes it easy to turn off the motor if the humming gets annoying.
    3) Fungus gnats also love this moist open air terrarium and now it is literally crawling with gnat larvae. Any suggestions on how to remove and prevent this?

    Tanner how long does moss last in your terrariums? Even in my closed terrariums it doesn’t last for more than 3-4 months before it begins to brown and look like it’s dying. I never seem to be able to get it to propagate either. please help 😞

      Im still getting into growing moss, but if it’s happening in your closed terrariums perhaps its getting too much light.

      make sure you the moss isnt constantly flooded with light because it can dry it out/burn it, make sure theres a good water supply and a very important thing is good draining!! its also good to spray the lid of the terrarium with water to initiate the water cycle :)

    This is great, I've been looking for a vid for moss walls with real moss - surprisingly hard to find 😂 the added water feature is awesome. Thank u

    That would be wonderful to place in a vivarium when your reptile goes into shed. I think collecting wild miss in england is illegal but I can get some from my back garden & they won't know lol. Great idea & I'll probably try making one myself. Thank you 😊

    Perfect opportunity to have used a peat moss pun!
    Admittedly, I gotta do this someday! Hopefully, soon!
