Terrarium Care

  • Your succulents should be kept at room temperature and receive at least 6 hours of direct or indirect sunlight every day.

  • For smaller terrariums, we generally recommend watering your plant with 1-2 tablespoons of water. For larger terrariums, we recommend 2-3 tablespoons.

    If your terrarium has a cactus, we recommend that you only water this particular plant with 2-3 tablespoons of water once a month depending on the size of the terrarium. Please allow the soil to fully dry before watering.

  • Allow for the soil in your container to dry out before you water your terrarium again.

    When watering your terrarium, make sure to water the soil surrounding the roots of your plant — do NOT water directly on top of the leaves of the plant.

  • If your terrarium is kept in a particularly hot room and/or receives intense sunlight during the day, you may need to water your terrarium more frequently — we recommend about once a week.

    If your terrarium is in a colder room, we may recommend that you water your terrarium less frequently — around once every 3 weeks.

    Notice: All succulents are unique, and you may need to pay close attention to your plant to find its perfect watering schedule. We strongly recommend checking on your plant and its soil to learn how much water your plant needs and how frequently it needs it.

  • We recommend cleaning the glass of your terrarium at least once a month to allow the plant to properly absorb light. A paper towel or cloth with some glass cleaner or white vinegar works fine.
