Herbs in Terrariums

I just discovered this forum. I posted this in the Herbs forum and didn't even know this existed. If you use herbs, what soil? Any suggestions would be great!

This recipe site I visit often had one advertized, and I thought it was a cool idea.

RE: Herbs in Terrariums

Hmmm, never seen an herb terr. What types were they suggesting? Some herbs I think would suffer from excessive humidity if you went with a more closed system, also heat build up could be a problem as most herb that come to mind need rather intense light. I'll look forward to seeing what you go with and how it turns out.

Media-wise, I think you might need something a bit more 'gritty' -- straight potting soil might compact too much for good root aeration.
