Hi all,
First time posting in here but my girlfriend recently got me one of those mini terrariums from Home Depot to grow. This is my first time caring for a terrarium so any help is greatly appreciated.
I’m mainly curious of how often I should mist it, what/if any insects I should add to manage decay, and how much heat/sun these guys need.

In general closed terrariums like this don’t need a lot of added water. I like to see a little condensation on the walls in the morning, then have it mostly go away by the afternoon, so I add water a little at a time until I see that . Watching the plants is the best way to tell if it needs more water.
Those plants like bright indirect light, so near a window is great but not one that gets the full blast of the sun. Full sun can overheat and kill your plants.
Really that terrarium is too small for anything but some springtails to manage decomposition. I ordered some off of amazon.
