My Friend's New Terrarium

My friend mad a new terrarium and it seems to work like a charm. He made it from a 3-tier greenhouse, 2 rubbermaid tubs, a couple pieces of wood and some duct tape. The greenhouse almost perfectly fit over 2 tubs duct taped together and just needed the wood to provide stability. It's humidified by a cool-mist humidifier with holes drilled in it's base. By having the holes in the base of the humidifier you can use the whole rubbermaid as a resevior and makes it so you only have to refill once a week instead of twice a day. The next modification will be a tube running between the bottoms of the tubs to allow filling both of the tubs and doubling the time between refills.

How do you humidify yours road? The cool-mist works great but my friend has to put holes in the bottom of each of his casings so no water will build up inside them.
He really likes it because now he can humidify 36 trays using the same floor space he used to do 10 in.

Ebay, lawn + garden etc. I just saw a 3-tier at a store called Big Lots for $19.99
When you do searches, use the words:
4-tier mini greenhouse
3-tier mini greenhouse

There are several ways that I have used to humidify them.
The cool-mist...turning it on manually.
The cool-mist with a timer.
Two trays of perlite in the bottom with large air stones in the perlite. the air stones are hooked up to an air pump. and misting the sides of the greenhouse. and fanning several times a day.
Misting the sides and fanning several times a day.
All of these methods worked for me.
But I live in an area with high humidity already...you might have to tweak them to get it to work right where you live.
I have the 4-tier mini greenhouse's
Like diver said...the store "Big Lots" has sales on the 3-tier mini greenhouse's for $19.99...which is a great deal.
HippieChick...that is the cheapest I have ever heard of the 4-tier mini greenhouse's going for...$29.99 is a great deal.
I got one of mine from Ebay...and the other one was given to me by a friend.
I have seen them being sold in Walmart, Fred Meyer's, Target, Lowes, Home Depot and various other places.
There is one thing about these greenhouses that I don't like...they have no floors in them. But I have a concrete floor in my grow room. If you have carpets...you might want to get a Martha Stewart.
