    It seems like ages since I last made a proper terrarium on the channel. So, I took the idea of a zen garden and combined it with a terrarium. What do you think of the result? I think it turned out awesome. I hope you all enjoyed the video and have a great weekend! PS - Sorry for the late upload. This one took AWHILE to edit.

      People hate on hot glue way too much. It has a specific use case and this is a perfect usage for it. No one is building houses with it, but for small crafts that aren’t moving much it’s perfect

      I respect people that use hot glue, largely because it means they have the patience of a saint if they can deal with all of the glue strings getting all over the place.
      They just drive me crazy, and are seemingly almost impossible to entirely remove, so I tend to avoid my hot glue gun like the plague.

    I think this is one of my favourite terrariums since I started watching back in the Spring. I agree that the tray could be larger if it is to be used as a zen garden, but the footprint does look nice for the size of the terrariums. The marble on top was the perfect final touch.

    UA-cam randomly recommended this channel, and I'm happy that the algorithm actually worked out positively for once.
    I'd second that the center bulb was my favorite. I know Tanner was going for a forest look, but it really reminded me of how when you're approaching a beach, and the grass starts to give way to the sandy shoreline. Love it.
    Also, a lot of people sleep on how useful a solid wire is as a tool. Back during one of my old jobs, I considered it one of my best tools.

    Hi Serpa! Another awesome vid! Funny thing is, I was just looking through your videos lately and did notice that it had been a while since you've done a terrarium build! Glad you're back at it.
    Quick question:
    You got me into terrariums this last year, and since then, I've been hooked. I followed your video on moss propagation for my first one. It's been great, and I've been able to find around ten different species to add. However, after a couple of months, mold started to appear. At first I just dunked the moss in a hydrogen peroxide + water mixture, which worked pretty well. It kept coming back though, so I added springtails. While I'm sure the springtails have been helpful, the mold remains. I can't use my old hydrogen peroxide mixture, because I read that it kills the springtails. I have the terrarium under this grow light for 10 hours a day. The moss is looking great, but the mold sort of ruins the aesthetic. Do you ever have similar problems with your setups? If so, what would you do about it in my case?

    • @SerpaDesign
      @SerpaDesign  3 роки тому +5

      It can happen sometimes due to lack of airflow. If you can install a small fan on the side to keep the air moving, it should stop occurring. Something tiny like these should work. www.amzn.com/B08948MT6F/ EDIT get the 5V USB one.

    It was so peaceful watching you create this Zen piece, if not for your voice I would have believed you were a Chinese master in his workshop. Thank you

    I love this concept so much and I think it turned it great. I like that they are all distinct and unique yet all connected. Something similar on a larger scale would be awesome to see.

    Love it! Such a creative idea. I like them all, but if i had to pick a favorite, it would be the one on the left.
