7. Place in a Suitable Location: Position your terrarium in a location that receives indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, which can overheat the terrarium.

4. Operating Instructions

To ensure your terrarium thrives and provides continuous enjoyment:

• Watering: Check the soil moisture daily. If the soil appears dry, use the Pasteur pipette to add a small amount of water. Overwatering can harm the plants.
• Light: Provide indirect sunlight for several hours a day. The watercress seeds should sprout within 3-5 days.
• Observation: Observe your terrarium regularly to watch the plants grow and to ensure the environment remains healthy.
