Simulating a Desert for 100 Days 

The best part is where he said " Its ecosystemin' time" and ecosystemed all over those guys 💀💀💀🗿🗿🗿

I love it when he says “The scorpion is a very dangerous predator…” *Proceeds to pick it up

雨が降って池ができて地形が変わったり、また水かさが減ったりするのマジで好きかっこよすぎ

4:49 this part was actually so cute!! I love how the scorpion is like “hey dude, this is my house could you please leave?” And the beetle is just like “sure, my bad”

Lol, I love how the scorpion didn’t even make the effort to attack the beetle, but instead just politely asked for it to leave. 😂

The cinematography in this video is impeccable, great job. I enjoyed this thoroughly and I have 110 gallon reef tank myself that I’ve had online for over six years. Well done!

I am amazed on how much patience you have with the days of plants growing.

Man took 100 days to make a 8 minutes and 50 secs vid, THIS IS REAL GOOD CONTENT GUYS, NO MEMES, NO SUSSY CONTENT, ONLY A TALENTED GUY DOING HIS AMAZING JOB ON RU-vid.

Not gonna lie that one beetle who wandered straight into the scorpion burrow had balls of steel 😱

Great storytelling, editing, and ideas. So happy I found your channel!

Amazing cinematics, suspenseful script, and creative builds! Pure talent!

I love the fact that you simulate weather and daylight in your builds! It adds a lot to the atmosphere of the environment.

"as scary as my mother" got me💀😂

This is one of the best video I ever seen in RU-vid. My 6yrs old daughter loves it so much. She watched all 3 of the 100days simulating videos one shot. Very educating ..Looking forward for more video like this. Thx for the effort. 😊

My 5th-grade classes LOVED watching these videos when we were studying Ecosystems. Thank you for your hard work on your videos. Even though we are done with our class work on ecosystems my students still ask for Dr. Plant video's. Thanks again!

No way you actually simulated rain and the plant’s reaction to it, you are amazing

i checked the recent comments, and you're still hearting comments on all these videos. that's really nice to see, i love youtubers that do that.

Amazing!!!!!

The transition from "See that little drop of liquid, that is a potent venom and I need to be extremely careful." "So I picked him up and started putting him in the tank." Is just so funny to me

This was more entertaining and insightful than most reality shows

This is a gem of a channel

We all are thankful and we all supporting you 🎉❤😊

I don't normally comment twice. But this was legitimately the best thing I have ever watched in 2023. Please do more ecosystems when you find the time. I loved the dune scorpion's ultraviolet light and the blue beetles. I love how you weren't afraid to truly simulate life in the desert. And the Jericho plant expansion was the coolest event because that was just straight beautiful! Keep it up, the bell is on!

2:30 :- "I have to be extremely careful" Literally 1 second later :- "I picked him up" Fricking loved that scene. BTW I love your determination in making these videos

🪲: Yo, can I crash at your place? 🦂: No. 🪲: Understandable, have a nice day.

This is the only RU-vid channel that I'm willing to wait months for an update. And every time an update comes up, the video doesn't fall to give so much life!

I just freaking love these videos and animals that I don’t even know! Definitely one of the best channels top tier

I love how the beetles are kind of Invincible and the scorpion just holds its stinger upright! ITS SO COOL!!!

this is literally like natgeo levels of quality. I feel like im watching a nature documentary. PLEASE NEVER STOP ITS SOOOO GOOD

The beetle and the scorpion interacting at 4:20 was oddly wholesome "Hmmm, what's in here, (nudges scorpion)" "Uhm- excuse me (nudges back)" "Ah, apologies, have a lovely day."

i have watched you for the first time and your videos make us learn everything about plants and climate

These 100 days simulation videos are my favorites from this guy.

I won't lie fully panicked when I thought you were serious about the bearded dragon! I own one and the tank being too small is only the tip of the iceberg on how unsuitable and dangerous a home like this would have been. That aside, absolutely gorgeous set up for these little critters!!! I love the ecosystem videos because it's something that takes a lot of patience and knowledge to get balanced but is so beautiful and worth it when you are able to achieve it!!

Am I the only one who really wants a 24/7 livestream of this, I think it would be so cool!

Bro’s mother-in-law being a demonstration of many scary animals

Watching your videos are like watching discovery channel or national geographic channel on how the earth and mother nature works. I hit the like button before watching the entire video because I know, its going to be impressive as usual ❤. Love from Bharat (India).

Dude, first off I’d like to say thank you for pushing a quality product… but for real how many of these do you have? You literally are pulling months of work out of nowhere… like the dedication is unreal and I think I speak for everyone when I say we are very impressed…

I refuse to believe there is a channel like yours that puts more effort than you. Seriously, every one of your videos are worth the wait and the peak of youtube content.

I wish these vids had a longer version to watch like a couple hours or something love the work❤

this dude's commentary is so good i didn't even notice it was only 8 minutes

2:12 something almost as terrifying as my mother in law 💀

These videos are far too short for how cool these projects are!! As someone who has always adored nature I'd love to see longer videos just showing off your work and the life of these ecosystems more! I'd be lying if I said your videos weren't making me consider getting into this hobby. Great work!

Kudos to you for this amazing video.

dr.plants: *explains the blue death feigning beetle is invincible* also dr.plants: "he is walking to his DOOM!"

I love how the drying up and rain cycle works, not only is it pure genius and amazing, it’s also pretty close to how some of these creatures would actually live in the wild, I find it astounding how you put so much effort into simulating a desert environment.

Bro i love how this man is like, "I have to be very careful" and then proceeds to just pick it up

I love the fact about this natcher in the background and the whole story about the bugs and creatures in the video

I love the fact that he waited so long to show us this

7:48 "CAREFULLY digging her nest." also the triop: **throwing particles everywhere and shaking her unborn kids as heck**

I love how this is a tiny ecosystem based on real life ecosystems, kind of like a simulation, but real! Also, at 2:26, I love how they were saying how careful they have to be, which is true, but then strait up picks up the scorpion and puts it in the tank. Pretty funny, but also very professional.

“Something almost as terrifying as my mother-in-law” LOL. 😂

Man, I really wish I had this tank, Ive been really interested in terrariums for a long time but every single one I make is terrible. And the way you set up the day and night cycle with working weather is just amazing.

“Yo man I’m jake” “wassup jake, Carl here” “mind if stay with you buddy” *bumps* “nah man this my crib back off” “Kay dude” 5:00

The fact that those water creatures only purpose is to not go extinct and lay their eggs in hope that they will get hatched and do same as their ancestors without any knowledge they never knew who their parents were is literally astounding

I just found this channel by accident and now i can't stop watching your videos its so cool

Awesome video! Again, you made it! Congratulations!

I remember finding you when you only had a single video, I immediately knew that this was something special. It's crazy to see how far you have come in such a short amount of time. I can't wait to see what you still have to offer.

You know what would be super cool? A live video where you have cameras all across the whole tank and the stream switches to where ever there is most movement. I think that would be cool

Your ecosystem are Great for learning for us😊

Dude, you’re one of the only RU-vidrs who take the extra length with your videos. I love your ecosystem videos, the editing and pasting is just immaculate, 10/10!

I love how he says "This is extremely potent venom, so I need to be careful", then proceeds to put the scorpion in using his bare hands🤣

One of the best videos i have seen in RU-vid

Yeah, this video was freaking epic

4:55 it looks like the scorpion just gave him a weak punch to tell it to bugger off (pun intended)

4:45 Lmao the scorpion went: “You’re not that guy, pal”

That “Ouch,” interrupting the voiceover made the video funnier for some reason

How does this man have the freaking courage to hold DEADLY animals? Keep up the good work, if i could, i would donate to u! ❤

Dude, you gotta set up a 24/7 livestream of this terrarium that goes on constantly. I would watch that every day man Edit: the terrarium could have multiple cameras. The video feed could switch between cameras when it detects movement. Also, there could be a camera that detects moisture or water and the camera would be a lot more active in the stream when it does. Also $10 to cause rain with a long cooldown time to prevent over-flooding. (These are further improved(mainly second one) ideas in the replies (I didn’t read all 80 tho).

Nothing makes my day better then when Dr. plants posts

“And I have to be extremely carefu-“ “So I picked him up”

I could watch videos like this for at least 10 hours!

Once again, I am completely blown away by the scale of your videos. It's borderline unbelievable...like how are you creating little worlds?!?!. I respect your creative choice to edit 100 days of work into a 9 minute video, but honestly I find your hobby so interesting that I would love a behind the scenes channel or something! Literally this is like the modern day digital zoo except better. One of the best channels of all time.

This content is amazing. I can only dream of creating ecosystems like this. The detail and thought that went into this is insane. Thank you so much for putting so much effort into this, and doing what nobody else on RU-vid has done. I can't give enough praise.

Id love an hour long or maybe a 30min long 100 day of this

This is peak content Nature is awsome

this channel has become my new obsession! It's so impressively put together, you can tell how much work has been put into this and it definitely pays off.

16 videos and almost 1 million subscribers... that's insane! Your videos are great and very high quality, it obvious that you actually care about content rather than just money. Keep up the good work!

we need a part 2 omg i loved the desert

such an awesome set up and great commentary!

Hey man. I’d really like to thank you. I’ve always had a big fear of bugs, dangerous animals and lots of nature to be completely honest. Your videos are really helping me find a passion for wildlife and are helping me get over my fears through exposure. Thanks so much, and I hope you continue to make great videos!

This has to be the best channel for closed ecosystem. Most of the channels only usually do builds and updates but here you get a full story about the ecosystem which is just so cool. Keep up the good work and thanks for keeping us entertained.

This was amazing.

Bettle: "Is this burrow occupied? My bad homie." Scorpion: "Door's that way." Beetle: "How kind."

7:14 I just feel like we need to appreciate that he said prehistoric Instead of alien.

The time and thought that you put into your projects is truly incredible! It really pays off, as I'm sure you already know. I think it's incredible how you are able to create entire ecosystems within a space as small as that! Your content is truly amazing, I enjoy watching you videos for the science/biology perspective as well as from a general entertainment one. There are plenty of people on RU-vid, but there are far fewer who match your talent, dedication, and true passion :)

My class students from school absolutely love your videos! Please make more of them. Kind regards, The ant class King's college Madrid

I love where you said something as scary as my mother-in-law

Bro the quality of these videos is freaking insane. Like unreal. The picture quality, content quality, capturing the footage. The work, patience, effort etc. great work my guy and keep it up

So if you wanted to do a lizard and scorpion set up, I’d recommend looking into spiny tailed lizards and flat tailed scorpions. They share burrows in the wild under a symbiotic relationship, the scorpion protects the lizard from larger predators while the lizard eats ants that would normally be a problem for the scorpion.

Bro I love your videos so much

Love that the scorpion at 4:48 just went "oi mate get outta my burrow"

This was absolutely brilliant! Including camera work, narration, fabulous background music and wildlife. The time, effort, and dedication you've shown are beyond fabulous! I am blown away. Thank you so much 🤎🖤🩶🧡 from Australia 🇦🇺

I loved the part where the lake dried up and the crustaceans laid their eggs to give a new generation for the next rain. It was incredible!

These are the type of videos that should be shown in schools

I wish this video was about 4 hours longer!

The bit where he said “a predator almost as scary as my mother in law” just got me 😂

This is by far your most impressive tank that we've seen! The whole flooding of the pond and gradual draining blew my mind.
