Plant Care & Growing Tips

Ensuring your succulent terrarium plants thrive requires understanding their basic needs, which are generally straightforward. These plants are adapted to arid conditions, so the most crucial aspect of their care is managing water correctly. Overwatering is the most common cause of succulent demise, so always err on the side of underwatering rather than overwatering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings, typically every 2-4 weeks, depending on humidity and light levels. In a terrarium, where humidity can be higher, you may need to water even less frequently. When you do water, do so thoroughly until water drains from the bottom of the pot (if it has drainage), or apply a small amount directly to the soil, avoiding the leaves, in a closed terrarium.

Regarding light, succulents generally prefer bright, indirect light. A south or west-facing window is often ideal, providing several hours of sunlight without being too intense. While some succulents can tolerate full sun, too much direct, harsh sunlight can cause their leaves to scorch, especially when newly introduced to a brighter spot. Conversely, insufficient light will lead to etiolation, where the plant stretches and becomes leggy in search of light, losing its compact form. Rotate your plants periodically to ensure even growth. For indoor terrarium plants, consider supplementing with a grow light if natural light is scarce. The ideal temperature range for most succulents is between 60-80°F (15-27°C), making them well-suited for average indoor conditions. They are not frost-tolerant and should be protected from cold drafts.

The right soil is paramount for succulent health. They require a well-draining potting mix, ideally a specialized cactus or succulent blend. This type of soil prevents water from sitting around the roots, which can lead to rot. You can also create your own by mixing regular potting soil with perlite, pumice, or coarse sand at a 1:1 ratio. Fertilization is not usually a critical factor for succulent terrarium plants. If you choose to fertilize, do so sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer designed for succulents, typically once a month at most. Avoid fertilizing during fall and winter when the plants are dormant. Regularly inspect your plants for any signs of pests like mealybugs or spider mites, and treat promptly with an insecticidal soap if needed. Understanding good succulent plant care will ensure your collection thrives.
