how we stocked our Eco-column

We put rich fertile soil, we also put some compost in our Eco-column. We planted two tropical plants in our Eco-column a maidenhair fern and some mint. We picked these plants because they are suited for tropical weather, and we have made our Eco-column to be hot and wet by sealing the top with a removable lid. The climate will evaporate water and the removable lid will catch the evaporated water, the water will condense  and drop, causing it to get warm and very damp inside our Eco-column.

We also put a few flakes of wood and leaf litter for wood lice and termites, we also put a couple of earthworms to add nutrition to the soil.
