I have setup a new terrarium and would like to run a mister continuously from 8am-8pm, the nepenthes have well draining soils and get morning sun then filtered from 11am onwards, temps are 23C-25C at night and 24C-32C by day, the reason for the misting time is that I have attached a miniature...
Hello everyone! I was wondering what lowland nepenthes you recommend for my terrarium. Currently I have a N. ampullaria and N. spectabilis x ventricosa.
Any recommendations?
Natural light levels
March 2014
Bright light all day without direct sunlight on plants.
All of my Neps are in natural light so I took readings using a light meter. The first reading was taken at 10am and by 4pm, the light level has gone up by at least 2000 lux at the shadiest spot and at the...
I've been having an issue with a few nepenthes, and I'm wondering if anyone has figured out the solution. They're growing fine up top, but they lose old leaves as quickly as they gain new ones. Over time this leads to a rosette with five or six leaves sitting on top of a tall woody stem. In my...

Hey guys! I was wondering if any of you use a fogger to keep the humidity levels up in your tank. I am thinking about purchasing a small fogger and leaving on the low setting so my humidity will be constant all day. Lowest my humidity gets without a fogger is around 70% before I spray the tank...

Hello all,
I'm in search of some N. ampullaria preferably green and red spotted varieties. I can't seem to find them anywhere.
I don't have much in the way of carnivores but I do have lots of freshwater aquarium plants such as crypts, guppy grass, java ferns etc. I also have colonies of red...
Since I made such a big deal last year about going the seed route I thought I should a at the very least post a few pictures of the results:
Nepenthes ampullaria 'Red'
Spider mites had the growth top webbed over before I realized I had a problem but after treatment it is back and producing...
Been away for several months so I thought I would stop in with some information on the seeds I planted in late Fall 2012. The seeds and seedlings that did the best were the rafflesiana's and ampullaria's. I wound up with one hirsuta and two albomarginata's. The aristolochioides produced a half...

I have extra Nep. ampullaria (enough for 2 people I think) and Nep. maxima seeds (enough for 4 people I think), these seeds were imported off the internet via e-mail and whatnot so they could be from 1931 and tomato seeds :-D. So keep that in mind.
Anyway I have no idea what a bubble envelope...
I'm interested in expanding my collection of rafflesiana and ampullaria. Looking for almost all varieties of rafflesiana, ampullaria, or x hookeriana. Cuttings or unrooted basals are fine. I have a handful of rooted cuttings and many plants in need of a trimming, I'm sure we can work something...

Hi Everyone! I just joined terraforums few days ago so I thought I should give an introduction here. I have always been interested in CPs and found them very fascinating but never thought I would be able to obtain one. Last year when I was on my way to the gym, I saw a sign pasted outside of a...
