Can anybody shed some light on why they think my terrarium is dying.
I bought from Sainsbury’s, was healthy and green.
It was pretty dry so I added some water. It slowly seems to be dying and turning brown.
I have noticed that I don’t seem to have much condensation on the glass, could this be an issue?
Thanks!

It looks very dry.
It does seem very dry, and that is more substrate than I would put in.. which also makes me think it needs more water.
But Im probably not the person to ask, I have a very base level of knowledge.
Water it
According to some videos, I’ve heard the soil should be well watered. Moist, but not to the point it’s dripping. You should be able to lightly squeeze a handful and see no water drops, but it is still thoroughly moistened.
I think I over moisten it. I always get a lot of condensation, so I prop open the lid a bit until it stabilizes. I understand condensation is not always a sign of too much moisture, so I am bit confused on this part.
