- Clean the glass bottle properly.
- Add a layer of colourful pebbles to the bottom of the bottle. The pebbles will make space for water to collect.
- Add a thin layer of activated charcoal. The charcoal will clear all the impurities that are present in the water.
- Peat moss is a nutritious soil and is beneficial for the proper growth of the plants. Make a ½ inch layer of it above the charcoal layer.
- Now, it’s time for adding a ½ inch layer of potting soil.
- Add your plants on top of the potting soil and spray a little water over it.
- Now, close the lid and your Terrarium is ready.
- Check on it once a week and clean the insides of the lid as well.
