Hi! Thank you for answering. Where I got the terrarium, the lady said drainage wouldn't be a problem because since it doesn't have proper soil she said misting the leaves was enough. But is it really?

I have my succulents indoors by a big window where it gets sunlight almost every day - given that I am currently living in Denmark and there not that many sunlight hours!

Succulents don't like to have wet leaves - it just causes humidity. Succulents prefer very dry conditions.

Oh I see... I only mist them once a week though. Is it too much?

They are not doing well in the current conditions.

I can't say how much is too much water for them but if you keep them in that set up, they will ultimately perish. I know this is very sad news.

the good news is that the problems are easily remedied.

Hi laticauda! What would you recommend doing then?

What Rina suggested. A well draining mix in a container that has drainage.

if you don't have a pot with a drainage hole, you can always get creative.

Some people poke holes in the bottom of yogurt cups. I use plastic bottles that have the bottom cut off.

leave the lid off and use either tissue paper or landscaping cloth (I used landscaping cloth) to prevent the substrate from falling through.

if you have a very tall container, you will also need to poke holes along the sides of the plastic bottle.

here's one of mine. I got it as a baby this past April or May and it is already flowering/pupping for me.

of course, you would want a more gritty and less water retentive mix than what's in with my spider plant, since yours are succulents and not leafy plants.

Thank you so much! I will definitely improvise a couple of pots from yogurt cups - never thought about that!
