Interspecific competition

Here hangs my beautifully designed terrarium. Unfortunately these plants will soon be competing for nutrients and space. This type of competition is deemed interspecific (because of the different species in the container), exploitative (not-combating), scramble (resources available, but they have to gather them) competition. The amount of root space they are competing for creates the contest. In this hanging orb there are limited resources (only 6 ounces of soil).
