    [California] Need some help with growing Drosera and VFT outdoor

    I would switch to a mix of Canadian sphagnum peat moss and sand with an inch or two of the LFSM on top. Make sure the plants are rooted in the sand peat mixture. The LFSM will prevent the peat from splashing up on the plants when it rains. If the LFSM is pushed into the sand peat mix is should...

    Capensis repotting question

    I will second the importance of pot size for these. My most impressive D. Capensis has been grown by itself in a deep 12" wide pot...peat and sphagnum 50/50 by volume.

    RO Recommendation?

    I have used the BRS 4 stage for years and it works. For CPs the DI stage is really not needed. You may want to get the water saver upgrade at some point because the amount of waist water is high without it. Use that waist water to water less sensitive plants. You can pickup a couple 5 gallon...

    Any ideas on this Nep ?

    Thanks for the input on this ID....I am assuming it will stop with the hairy lid pitchers as it matures and start looking like more of the ventrata I have seen. Does anyone have a "go to" book/source for the identification of Nepenthes, something similar the field guides for trees or mushrooms...
