My boyfriend and I’s one and only terrarium that hasn’t been opened since about September of 2025. We added bugs (can’t remember the name) when we made it, misted it and let it ride.

To my surprise, it’s done fantastic, but recently I started to notice little white and yellow dots in the soil all around the jar ….and then all of the sudden the coolest mushrooms I’ve ever seen appeared. I don’t know if this is good or bad, but I’m not doing anything about it because I want to see how it plays out.

Enjoy ̈

    Leucocoprinus Birnbaumii (I believe)! Commonly called the flowerpot parasol, should be beneficial for the ecosystem!

    as far as i know, mushrooms popping up indicate very healthy soil. so this looks to be a very good thing!! so cool!!!

    These cause no issues! Happens when you water after dry conditions.
    Just a heads up though, that begonia you have in there is going to outgrow this terrarium real fast.

    That looks so cool!

    Could you share a little about the layers and what you started out with? I’d love to get something like this started.
