Nothing more. I assume that you're looking for something that might change the ph?
The thing is, but there is not the time to discuss now, that no sarracenias have grown to me. Not even when i let them in their pot (assuming they had the right soil)

The media is not sphagnum peat moss but regular peat moss with 3.5-4 ph and no added fertilizers. I've also flushed it thoroughly with water below 40ppm. They have been transplanted this spring, after getting out of dormancy.
The soil worked for droseras and nepenthes, although my vft grew...
Romania. We get around 35-40*C in the summer. Right now the temperatures are enough to trigger a vft's dormancy little by little (around 10-14*C during the day, 5-7*C during night) and we currently had loads of rainy days.
I must say that I was never able to grow a Sarracenia almost at all and...
Hey guys,
My sarracenias have grown very little during this year (like in all years until now) and now that the autumn came, they started growing and developing pitchers. What could I go wrong with? Is it possible to give a sarracenia too much sun?
The water I use has below 50ppm tds and I've...
Hey, sorry for the late response. The moss just grew with the peat moss. It's currently overtaking the droseras but I think they can handle it :D

So you're saying these are tokaiensis, not spatulata? I had some bigger specimens at work and managed to do some pictures.
Also, it may matter their trap speed: they curled up within a few(5) minutes around the bloodworms.

Then I got hoaxed by the selling seeds company? Oh well. Thanks for helping the ID. The seeds have not been cold stratified, no.

My bad. They are Drosera Spatulata "Fraser Island". I suppose they look like D. Tokaiensis, yea :) I am attaching some pictures with the plant for ID, too

D. Capensis, D. Spatulata, D. Burmannii, D. Nidiformis, D. Scorpioides. There might be others too, because I had bought some Drosera mix ar some point. The only fear is that I don't know where to put them during winter
Also, if anyone near Romania wants to trade or need seeds of any of the...
Hello guys,
Just wanted to share my Drosera babies. I'm so proud of them that I felt the need to pass the love to others too :)
Also, could you tell what Drosera flower is that? The plant looks something between Capensis and Nidiformis, but the nidiformis has pink flowers.
Enjoy and thanks...
Hello guys,
What is going on with this ventrata?... i give it 5 hours of direct sunlight and it is standing next to a sanguinea and a rebecca soper that look good. Some time ago I had problems with its pitchers not totally forming and leaves all green, now it's the complete oposite: dark big...
Apparently Private Sarracenia IS recovering. After a barbaric trimming and some nice sun for 2 weeks, some growth can be seen :)
