I make moss terrariums and they are so easy to care for. Water Requirements: I just water them 1-2 times per month making sure the moss roots are not sitting in water. If the jar becomes too cloudy then cut back on watering. The moss should always feel damp to the touch but never soggy. Light Requirements: Make sure your terrarium get indirect light. Never sit it in direct sun. Usually any office is great! Greenbriar www.greenbriar.etsy.com
