Here's why Leca excels as a terrarium drainage layer: - Lightweight: It's lighter than traditional rocks, reducing the risk of glass damage. - Eco-friendly: Made from clay, it's safe for plants and the environment. - Durable: Provides long-lasting support for plants and terrariums. - Reusable: Never expires, allowing multiple uses. - Pest resistant: Soil-free, preventing infestations like fungus gnats.
Creating a Leca drainage layer is simple: - Begin by giving your Leca a thorough rinse to remove any dust particles, ensuring a clean and clear terrarium environment. - Layer your terrarium with a one-inch thickness of Leca, adjusting the amount for larger setups as needed. - Shield your Leca layer with a mesh barrier to prevent the substrate from mixing with the drainage layer. - Complete your terrarium assembly by adding the terrarium substrate, followed by moss and plants, to create a flourishing ecosystem within your glass enclosure.
