Care & Maintenance Instructions
Wipe the internal and external glass walls with a soft microfiber cloth to remove water spots and keep glass scratch-free.
Rinse the acrylic lid under warm tap water; avoid using alcohol-based chemical glass cleaners to prevent acrylic clouding or micro-cracking.
Adjust ventilation by flipping the lid orientation depending on whether your plants require fresh air circulation or a fully sealed humidity chamber.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What plant species grow best inside the Chihiros Glass Pot?
This vessel is ideal for moisture-loving species that thrive in elevated humidity, including Wabi-Kusa plant balls, emersed aquatic species (Anubias, Bucephalandra, Cryptocoryne), terrestrial mosses, miniature ferns, and carnivorous plants like Drosera.
2. Can I use the Chihiros Glass Pot for a miniature underwater tank?
Yes! The larger sizes (Large and Dew-Shaped) work wonderfully as miniature Walstad-style pico aquariums, glass propagation jars, or small rimless desktop shrimp vessels when filled with water.
3. How does flipping the acrylic lid change the moisture inside?
When placed in its standard orientation, the 64 side holes provide gentle air exchange while trapping humidity. Flipping the lid inverted seals the side ventilation slots against the glass rim, creating a maximum-humidity seal for delicate mosses and tissue culture acclimation.
