      Great idea and you are a great architect, too. It’s good to know that the thickness holds up the weight.
      I put timers on all of water pumps because they often malfunctioned and cooked my plants.

      @SerpaDesign Hi Tanner 👋 I've also been working with sphagnum moss in my projects. I recently was surprised to learn that sphagnum Moss might carry sporotrichosis fungus. The article I read recommends gloves and long sleeves. Have you heard of this?

    I would love a six month update; I'm curious to see how you deal with the plants growing. Do their planting pockets have room for more roots?

      Because he shows us all the positive and negatives, success and failures it makes every video informative and allows you to use the knowledge for other projects.

    after watching channels like yours for a year or so i was able to gather enough inspo to make my own living wall with a few types of Monsteras. Its 4ft wide by 5 ft tall made from reclaimed curved acrylic and i made the interior support system form from expanding foam and cholla wood. Its about 6 or 7 months old now and really thriving so thank you for your channel to help me make my own home more beautiful and full of life. Its quite a conversation piece too!

    i am going to try this! i was gifted a drawing of a bear in a cave under a waterfall and never had it framed because i thought that was just too plain. i was inspired by your channel a while back and wanted to attempt to make a frame for it that was also a planter but had no idea where to start; but i do now! this will work perfectly if i just make the back out of glass and construct everything around the art! thanks Serpa

      I love that idea! You should check out his golden play button paludarium video if you haven't already. He does something similar to that, making an insert for the play button behind a paludarium. Might give you some ideas?

    I just made this about six months ago. 48 x 72. I layered it with a stainless steel sheet as a backing, pool liner siliconed down, two plastic pvc sheets, and recycled felt as a medium. Added a gutter system as draining. I then added a drip system (tube, drip emmiters) and lasted a closed loop system for watering. I have over 60 plants in it and am still adding.
    When I created, there wasn't any information on creating, but inspiration of final product. I wish I had recorded the process to help others like you did. You rock! I may make some smaller ones for my bedroom using your technique.

    I have some orchids I want to grow as they would in their native jungles. They need a vertical surface that will let their roots attach and I've been puzzling over a setup for more than a year now. This video gave me some tremendous ideas on how to provide what they need without having to wet the growing surface by hand daily and making a GBM (Great Big Mess).
    Thanks so much for sharing your creativity and know-how.

    I have become obsessed with living walls and have even been able to incorporate them into my Vivariums, one with just a misting system and another that has a built in drip system on a timer. Definitely need to play around with a wicking system next though. Thankyou for all of your inspiring content over the years, it has helped me more than you know.

But very nice to see another of your videos. I’ve got an upcoming aquarium build, so I’ll use some of your videos as an inspiration 😍
