Hello all, Is there a resource known to this community that lists what species are capable of hybridizing on their own in nature? I realize that with artificial pollination most species can be crossed. That's not the intention of this post however; I'm hoping to discover which plants share...

And like most plant folks who live where the snow flies, one of the major limits on what I keep is lighted space. My house doesn't have much window space, and some of what's there is reserved for cats. I have a few set ups with artificial lighting, but still run out of space every winter...

The plants have been under artificial lights for 3 weeks since they arrived. Every 2nd photo has an * to indicate new growth. Under T5s (On average, each plant lost about 3 leaves i.e. blackened, then removed. And produced about 2-3 new leaves) Under LEDs (The plants did not lose...

What artificial lights should I use for growing sarracenias from seeds? I am growing them in a green house in my room. I do not have lots of knowledge on lights and the structure so all the info and tips will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Good afternoon everyone! :-D Allow me to introduce myself, My name is Chris, and I am a hopeless forum junkie. I really hope to learn a lot from you folks :) I run a company building motion control systems for timelapse photography and i have been getting into what I call Biolapse. I have put...

Hi! I'm giving away a nice sized Tillandsia cyanea, pupped it off last year. I'd be amazed if it doesn't bloom next spring. And I'm throwing in a small pup of a bromeliad, a Cryptanthus Earth Star, I believe the name is Pink Starlite, but no guarantee on that. I have a bunch of these under...

Everything looks terrible because it's winter and I don't believe in artificial lighting, but here goes: D.graomo N.macrophylla N.spectabilis x talangensis N.sibuyanensis x xtrusmadiensis N.densiflora x robcantleyii (King of Spades) P.gigantea (afaik) some other Ping flower...

Cant seem to be able to find a solid answer on lighting and dormancy I guess what im looking to find out how critical light is during winter dormancy. Im in ny and its not unusal to see subzero temperatures so year round outdoor growth is not possible. If a flytrap gets hit with a good frost...

Has anyone here heard of the Sony Entertainment Robot the Sony Aibo? Most people don't even know it exists. I've only just found out about them relatively recently. I remembered you all and thought I would tell you about it. I used to be on here in 2001 under a different name but came back...

Axelrod's CPs Ok new thread, and I'm going to try to confine my questions and stuff to here now that I feel like I might be starting to get the hang of things...a little. Previous threads: http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php/135461-How-am-I-doing-so-far...

I was wondering if I can have the lights be on for several hours and off for one hour and come back on for several more hours, maybe repeating this for about 3 times before the lights go off for the night. Will this effect photosynthesis greatly? Mainly I want to cut cost of electricity bill.

Just wanted to introduce myself to you guys.. I'm just a teen from south-eastern Ontario that has recently gotten into nepenthes and CP's in general. I currently have a ventricosa and I am planning on buying some artificial lights to grow more (sundews, maybe sarracenia..perhaps even orchids)...

I moved this one to a room with an extra nighttime air conditioner a few months ago. It has a light but it is not left on as much as the other. and I left this one in an aquarium with much more light but no drop in temp. at night. Both are setting on a window sill and have artificial light...

Apologies if this has been brought up in discussion before as I haven't been to the site in a while. But I'm curious if anyone has picked up a copy of the newly published Savage Garden and whether it's worth the "upgrade" in literature. Apparently it was put out July 2nd, and I only found out...

i have always had lots of trouble growing drosera roraimae, the first time i recieved a seedling it died and now i have bought a new more mature drosera roraimae from the summit of mount roraima but im having trouble growing it, i have it growing in artificial fluorescent lighting, it gets...

Hello all Im planning on constructing or buying a all season green house and need some friendly advice. Im in need of a GH I live in MN which is zone 3b in hardiness. Price does not matter ATM was looking to spend around 10k if need be. Dimensions are about 6x10m and have about 2 stories (about...

I have two pots with about 40 to 50 Darlingtonia seedlings each. The plants range from about a week to a month or so old. I hve all of them on my covered (fully shaded) northern porch right now. I was thinking about putting them in a south facing window sill, though. There is no direct sun...

Before I start this thread, I will inform you that this issue is not the infamous Curved-Leaf Syndrome. This issue is not the infamous Curved-Leaf Syndrome. Yes, indeed, it is I, Plant Planter, the one with the uncreative name, and my "Cupped Trap" plant is ailing. Here's the deal. My lovely...

Updated 5/29/2013: Still have some takaiensis seeds available for trade. This plant..... I have tens of thousands of seeds available for trade. Above is a picture of a few of the many parent plants that are constantly spraying seeds all over the place! If you have ever had success...

Hi guys, I currently keep my CPs in my terrarium (10g tank with peat/sand/coir mix) or my sunny windowsill. I am planning on putting a plant rack together to give me more space, better control, and overall convenience. The rack I'm looking at is a wire shelf found here. I'd like to confine all...
