Just this past Sunday, my colleagues put together an appreciation programme for the Community Interpreters. Regardless of whether you live in a terrarium or ecosphere, you probably already know what one is. So, let me present my terrarium to you after attending a Virtual Terrarium Workshop conducted by Ricky Lim from The Green Capsule.
You start off with the building blocks: Soil, pebbles, and plants.
Next, you follow the careful guidance by your workshop organiser. You should end up with a layer of soil for your plants.
Then you place the plant, moss, and figurine.
And you call it a day.
I opted to keep the terrarium enclosed with the rubber seal on. Sufficient condensation formed inside the jar, indicating that my closed system should do fine. I will need to monitor the terrarium though. Though it’s a self-sustaining system, intervention is needed.
Here’s hoping that my terrarium cuts global temperature by one degree celsius. I know it is a lofty goal. But, one can always dream. Right?
