Shari Petrucci from the Western Mass Masters Gardeners Association shares a suggestion at Mass Appeal:
"If your air-plants are in a small terrarium and you are unable to remove them for watering, we recommend misting them through the opening once weekly. This method can also be used for our hanging globe terrariums, wall pockets, and apothecary terrariums. Pay close attention that your plants are getting adequate moisture, but are not sitting in water within any terrarium."Remember that using distilled water in terrariums can reduce the amount of mineral deposits that develop on the glass. Be sure to visit Air Plants 101 at Mass Appeal to learn more about air plant care.
Very interesting blog Lauren! :)
ReplyDeleteBe careful using distilled water! It does not have the nutrients needed and can actually be harmful to tillandsia's over time. Best to use rain water, pond water, or bottled water. Tap water can be ok if you let it sit for a few hours to dissipate the chlorine!
ReplyDeleteThanks for that information Ryan.
DeleteBest to let the tap water sit for 24-48 hours to let the chlorine in the water to dissipate. Chlorine is harmful to plants.

As summer vacation arrives, everyone is rushing to the sea, and you have every intention of doing the same. But the sea, like the mountain, is an indomitable element that must be taken care of.
The sea is above all a natural body of water that can present hidden dangers. A sudden change in-depth, a current which carries you along despite you ... It is, therefore, better never to go swimming alone, even on a supervised beach to avoid the dangers of the sea.
