Whilst your information is fantastic and flows really well you are also very entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Your aquarium looks amazing due to the fact that you are very creative and you have taken the time to pre plan the finished product. Awesome result
First off, Jake - gorgeous, simply gorgeous…. next, Thank you for the step by step guidance… lots of time and effort… much appreciated! Hats off to you!
Thx for thi vidéo! It so on point! Really nice! 100% silicone is safe, aquarium silicone is juste stronger cuz of water pressure. So its more to hold panel together.
That is amazing!! So creative and so beautiful. Thanks for sharing and all your advice to others who may want to do this. I look forward to seeing the updates from the other side of the world in Australia.
You are so funny, too cute!! I love your results, so well done! I will save this video and have taken notes. Thank you for sharing! I have the same fans in my milsbo greenhouse so that's a plus.
New subscriber, the entrance of this video was amazing!!!! Your terrarium is a work of art, eventually you should add a waterfall like your other one it would bring it to another level. Id love to attempt this but im not a plant mastermind, just a newbie. Thx for sharing your genius ideas.
This is beautiful! I love how the lighting falls on everything. Regarding the mold, have you considered adding springtails? I thought about it for my milsbo non-terrarium greenhouse but it seemed a hassle since all the plants were in their own containers and it would be tough making sure they got everywhere, but with your terrarium, it’s one giant pot, so the springtails would be able to roam everywhere.
I wanna say $200 max?? The cost mostly depends on how many silicone tubes and spray foam cans you buy. Plus different ones can be different prices so it all depends what you have access to and what your budget is 😁
This is extremely helpful! One question, when you’re reapplying peat moss after you’ve brushed off the debris, do you use silicone again to stick it on? Makes me think it would be messy to put silicone on top of peat moss to stick more peat moss on lol. Thank you for making this video!
Ideally you would apply a coat of silicone in small areas at a time, apply peat moss, and the peat moss will stick to all of the silicone and cover all of the silicone when it dries. If there is a spot where some silicone is exposed you can go back and reapply as needed but 95% of it should be a one and done
Thanks for the thorough tutorial! Did you find that carving the foam was completely necessary? I saw some videos where folks just pressed the peat/moss directly into the wet foam, and then used silicon or pins to attach more for any bald spots.
I believe you can do that as well. I think at least one other UA-camr said they tried this and a lot of it fell out. But it still might be able to expedite the process, then you can fill in the rest:)
It’s a labor of love😂 yes it’s a lot of work and it’s a commitment but I LOVE it. I can now throw 40+ plants in there and care for them as one vessel. And I can mount rehabs and propagations and they take off!:)
That is the most gorgeous Ikea Cabinet terrarium I've ever seen.
thank you!🥰
First you saved my Verrucosum's life, now you inspire me to step up MY milsbo terrarium game. This looks soooo good PlantGay!!!
YES! go for it! if I had room, I would make another lol
You're so creative! Even the sketches are wow
haha aww thanks
One of the very best terrarium I've seen !!! Absolutely beautiful
Thank you very much!😊

Ooh! Good to know! That makes sense. Yeah thankfully I’ve never had issues with the silicone😊🙏
Looks gorgeous! I can't wait for the updates of how everything is growing! You did a great job building out your cabinet!
❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful work of art ❤
thank you!
Excellent😍🙌🏽

Thanks for the sub! I wish it was bigger then I would TOTALLY add a mister waterfall! But I just cram so many plants in there, I ran out of room😅
Dude this video is so helpful. I bought a Rudsta model and will be attempting one of these. Thank you sir.
Glad I could help! Cheers!
Love it! ❤ giving me inspiration to finish mine 😅❤
finish it before summer ends🤌

I might add some down the line! so far no excessive mold issues
You're hilarious and informative. Love the videos! Also, idk why but you're giving leo decaprio vibes, are you guys related? LOL
That might be my HIGHEST compliment to date!😆
i see it!
Terry because he's in a terra cotta planter! Also, what was the total cost (not including plants and cabinet) for the whole set-up?

This is amazing. I didn't see how to apply the peat moss though. Did we skip day 4?
17:55, apply the peat moss with silicone after the foam is carved, but some people just apply the peat moss before the foam cures as a shortcut

This is the insta worthy version of my 'reality' attempt 🤣
Where is your sprayer / mister from? I cant find any similar but LOVE yours
It’s from Amazon! It might be in my description link/amazon storefront??
how does the peat moss sticks to the dry foam hardscape ?
Silicone!
How did u get the moss to stick to the walls of the cabinet
i used black bonsai wire, cut it, bent it like a little horseshoe, and pinned the moss and plants to the walls😊
Where did you get all your cuttings ?
All from my own plants!😁
@@plantgayforlife love love love 💓
Can I ask if so far you had rust issue?
There is a little bit of rust but no rust issue worth noting at all😊
@@plantgayforlife thx
Gworl, is that not too much work?!
It’s a labor of love😂 yes it’s a lot of work and it’s a commitment but I LOVE it. I can now throw 40+ plants in there and care for them as one vessel. And I can mount rehabs and propagations and they take off!:)
