Okay so i made an ecosphere almost 2 weeks ago and i decided id leave it to see what happens whilst i went on holiday but i came back and theres these weird bubbles on top ?? It also smells weird when i really go up close to it?
before i went on holiday i had left the ecosphere in my outhouse shed thingy and didn’t realise how hot it got in there so a lot of the bugs died .. but i decided to just leave it as i didn’t have time to dispose of it and make a new one before i went on holiday.
Im definitely going to dispose of this and make a new ecosphere sometime but i just want to know what this is??? Like what’s going on i searched it up on google and it said it could be dead bugs / plants which i think would be most likely but i thought i should ask here before i dispose of it

The bubbles are gases with built up biofilm
Do NOT dispose of the jar, it’s not dead. It’s cycling. If you have a real plant in there and not just some grass from the banks, then it will recover. The smell is part of the first cycle.
