Plant Care & Growing Tips
Caring for your air plant terrarium kit is remarkably simple, making it an excellent choice for beginners. The air plants (Tillandsia) included in your teardrop glass terrarium kit do not require soil, as they absorb moisture and nutrients through their leaves. For optimal health, ensure your terrariums are placed in an area that receives bright, indirect light. Avoid direct, harsh sunlight, which can scorch the leaves of your air plants. A spot near a window with filtered light or in a well-lit room away from the window is ideal. Watering involves either misting the plants 2-3 times a week or giving them a 20-30 minute soak in water every 1-2 weeks. After soaking, gently shake off excess water and allow the plants to dry completely in an airy spot before returning them to the terrarium to prevent rot. Good air circulation is crucial for air plants. While the terrarium provides a humid environment, ensure the plants are not constantly wet. The ideal temperature range for these plants is between 50-90°F (10-32°C). No specific fertilization is typically required, but a very diluted air plant-specific fertilizer can be used sparingly during the growing season if desired. Keep an eye out for any browning leaf tips, which might indicate insufficient humidity or water, or yellowing leaves, which could suggest overwatering. This terrarium decor kit is designed to be low-maintenance, providing lasting beauty with minimal effort.
