CW: info-dump on alternative substrate method for terrariums
everything toy's learned thus far about an alternative terrarium substrate mix. Not the usual layered method with drainage, filtration, & soil. This mix has ideas from semi-hydroponics & planted aquariums. Springtails can also be added later as needed for cleanup.
by combining all the necessary substrate layer functions, maintenance becomes "simpler" & the setup looks cleaner. Its proposed approximate recipe is 2 parts inactive : 1 part charcoal : 1 part aquasoil, with all parts measuring granules around 3mm, just avoid a completely sandy mixture.
🌿 reddit source for using aquasoil in terrariums:
https://www.reddit.com/r/terrariums/comments/utjo0f/this_terrarium_is_over_a_year_old/Michikusa uses another ratio of roughly 2 parts akadama : 1 part fuji sand : 1 part charcoal. This seems to work well too, so the aquasoil could be entirely unnecessary for moss & certain plants...

🌿 Michikusa terrarium video example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja8AX5n7lt8with both recipes, it's fine to mix in an extra part of an inactive ingredient. Michikusa does that for certain builds to add color and those terrariums are probably dandy :ms_exclamation_mark_gray:

This little bit of #moss was on the ground under my #oldgrowth douglas fir trees, tossed down by one of the marauding #squirrels, so I brought it in to decorate my plant zone #fountain near my #wfh desk. Last year I made a tiny drip wall fountain with moss and rocks and cedar bark. Maybe I'll try a #mossarium this time. #mosstodon

If you’re not following #mosstodon, you’re missing out.
I don’t have any wild moss to post at the moment, but here’s a #mossarium I made using native plants from my childhood home. It features a tableau of our old GI Joe action figures, who fought many a war on that soil. Made in Oregon, now living with my brother in Montana.

@scottyoumans I've grown a little moss on tree bark as part of a table top fountain but eventually put it back outside. I'm hoping to try again after more research. Lots of ideas here https://www.reddit.com/r/Mossariums/ #mossarium
