Unburied a ~1960s Pepsi bottle near my office the other day, to my surprise it came with a pre established terrarium. Not sure if I should add more soil and cork it or leave it as is and spritz as needed?
The other terrarium was established a few weeks ago, my first ever. Materials all came from local sources, except for some of the substrate (originally purchased for other purposes) and “snail shells” (found in the coastal part of my state). Pretty proud of how it’s filling in, and the isopods seem happy enough. Moss and hitchhiker grass/weeds are growing in well and I have spotted a few springtails, so as long as I keep up with spritzing, I hope it’ll last for some time.

What a great idea with the bottle! I think you could cork it or leave open to spritz, I would just maybe add more soil to hold some more moisture if you leave it open.
Such a neat find! I have the same 1960s bottle!
