Pilea glaucophylla, also known as the grey artillery plant, can be a great addition to a terrarium. Here are a few things to consider when growing this plant in a terrarium:

Lighting: Pilea glaucophylla prefers bright, indirect light. Placing your terrarium in a location that receives filtered sunlight, or using artificial grow lights, can help provide the necessary light.

Humidity: This plant requires high humidity levels to thrive. Terrariums can provide a humid environment, but it's important to ensure that the terrarium is well-ventilated to prevent the growth of mold and other issues.

Soil: Pilea glaucophylla prefers well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and orchid bark can provide the necessary drainage and nutrients.

Watering: Water your Pilea glaucophylla when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Be careful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot.

Size: Pilea glaucophylla is a smaller plant and can do well in smaller terrariums or as an accent plant in larger terrariums.

Overall, Pilea glaucophylla can make a beautiful addition to a terrarium if provided with the proper conditions. Its compact size and unique grey foliage make it an excellent choice for terrariums.
