Your soil looks very green (like algae covered). Are you positive strike killed them? It usually takes a bit (weeks to months) before I notice much going on as far a growth.

"GUYS I AM IN THE UK" Maybe you might edit your profile to put UK as the location. So as people don't have to guess.

What is the latest time you have had Sarracenia throw up a flower stock? I just noticed 3 different plants putting up flowers this morning. Two (alata x oreo, and a alata) of the three I have had for two years and the other (flava) I got this spring. The plant I got in early spring already put...

Have you had long term success with Ariocarpus in a peat soil (I notice a small 3-4year plant that looks like it is in a peat/perlite soil). I tried soil with peat as a base for Ariocarpus sp. a few years back. Summer, Spring and Fall were normal but winter I lost one plant and the other two...

I've got pounds of the stuff. Shoot me a pm with your address. Sean

Seem like the are just reselling chemicals from Aldrich or other chem companies. Nice for some who wants just a small amount. But a few things on that list could really hurt the untrained "chemist".

Do you have anything for trade? I have a several on that list. I think you listed just about every cult. in the U.S and some that are not available in the U.S. Just curious, how long have you been growing Dionaea muscipula?

"They don't do too well outside. " Why not? I have several outside that have more dew goo than Slimer from ghostbusters.

The gypsiocola looks nice! What media/soil do you use for it?

I have my Pseudolithos in either 1:1 pumice/sand, pure sand, lava rock (pea-small grape size), pure crushed coral, java rock/sand. All of the mixtures have a bit of crushed coral. Personally I like java rock/sand. They are more difficult to look after but I think worth it, my father has at least...

Pseudolithos cubiformis is an wierd little guy. . Other than that I like Ariocarpus (I will take some photos later today for you).

Maybe you city switched from chlorine to choloramines. chloramines will not "evaporate" like chlorine would. The water may still be soft but not treated the same way. About two years ago my city water switched and instantly my fish let me know with heavy breathing and brown algae.

Can I ask about your water source? Seems like the ends of the plants are dying first, reminds me of heavy metals with aquatic plants.
