Plants and Mycology Intro

Hey there! In this blog I'm going to be talking about,well, plants and mycology.  I'm going to try and give some tips on projects,and just let you guys know What I've been up to plant/fungi wise.  I will try and post at least once a week.
 the next set of pictures is of a terrarium I started about a month or so ago. I put in a strawberry runner, a cutting of a type of Sedum, and of course, moss.  A strawberry is probably not the best candidate for a terrarium, because they grow so fast and have largish leaves,but you gotta work with what ya got,and it is super cute.  I will probably do a whole post just on terrariums in general in the next week.  The Succulent I used was a little big,and I probably should have used a smaller variety,but I didn't have one available.  This whole terrarium cost me about 5 dollars to do, as all I had to get was the jar. all the plants and this terrarium are doing really well.  Two of the three leaves on the Strawberry are completely new growth since the terrarium was first planted.  the Sedum has rooted, and grown tremendously



 This next set of pictures is of a terrarium I started a couple weeks later,and has just some English Ivy cuttings, and moss. one of the ivy cuttings already has two leaf buds on it, which is a good sign!





Alright I hope you liked this post, and have a good rest of the week!
