Instructions for building and caring for your sporophyte plant.
Type of terrariums |
Empty two liter bottles, glass encased bowls, large brandy glass with a cover, store bought plastic terrarium |
When to plant |
When you see several roots and leaves, transfer to the terrarium at this time. Move the whole plant and try not to plant a lot of the agar. |
Types of soil |
Potting soil works the best or, ask at the local nursery for the type of soil for growing ferns. |
Light and Temperature |
Use the same conditions as for growing the gametophyte, however, cooler temperatures will work but the plant will grow slower. |
# of plants to transfer |
That is up to you and your design, try moving 3-4 plants. You may also want to make another terrarium. |
