I'm having a hard time being patient

Every day I stare into my vivarium, willing my plants to GROW. I can't even get frogs until after the hubby and I get back from vacation in June, but I STILL want my plants to grow like weeds! Its going to be a hard 2 months.

Ehehe...Hard to wait, hey Liz ?

Here´s a tip: don´t look at the viv for a full week, then look again and you will see that the plants are bigger

ps: Your vivarium looks really amazing !

So try taking a picture of the enclosure and then a week later compare the picture with the tank itself.
It may surprise you.

I did! and I thought it grew more than in actuality. I think thats what has me antsy. The baby tears in the upper left hand corner grew a whole lot. The 2 plants on the bottom right and left of the tank didn't get any taller but do have new shoots coming in. I did place the moss in the back corner just this past friday as well as the two tiny broms up at the top, as well as a hanging plant cutting.

I have always been a very patient person, but this is too much!

I know I have to be patient, I don't have my humitiy or temps right yet. Working on it!
