Hi everyone. Last year I started having a problem. All the leaves on my Drosera and VFTs turn black while the growth points remain green. Whatever it is has killed nearly ALL of my Pings. I assume it's the same thing that has been knocking off my Sarracenia as well. I thought the problem was...

*---------------------------------------------------------* This is very successful at another forum that I visit. Essentially what this does is create a place to post and discuss topics that are not necessarily important enough to warrant starting a new thread over. As there is no set topic...

Thought yall would get a good laugh outta this. Got this from another board.... Around age 10 my dad got me one of those Little Bad-boy Compound Bow beginner kits. Of course, the first month I went around our place sticking arrows in anything that could get stuck by an arrow. Did you know...

This is a moss terrarium, not a CP terrarium, which is how he came in, it's all locally gathered moss, so I assume the little guy must have hitchhiked in on a clump. (I drowned them before putting them in, to cut down on the wildlife transported, but obviously that doesn't always flush out...

I was hoping to get some input on humidifiers for my new highland greenhouse. It's 8x10x6. I've narrowed my search down to a Kenmore model through Sears, or a Honeywell model (available online through iallergy.com). The Kenmore (model 15412) retails for $139, has a 12 gallon output, and 3.9...

Hello. Today i received a small shipment of recently (2-3 days ago) deflasked TC carnivorous plants from varying genus'. As expected, I have done some research, and know that they need to be kept in humid, shaded, and medium temp environments and slowly acclimatatized, but this is my first...

I'm the proud owner of a baby Coastal Carpet Jaguar Python. He will get to be around 9 feet long and need a fairly large enclosure. Along with the other plants, I would like to add a Nepenthes in there. This is where you guys, the nep experts, come in... First question I have is what would...

Though I've read everything I could find about all CP, including Pinguicula, I had somehow overlooked information about their floral fragrances. Of course, I had heard about Pinguicula agnata [CSUF] having a destinctive floral scent, but somehow, to my mind, that fact led me to falsely assume...

G'day everyone, hope you are all well Just wondering, when your plants form basals, do the basals usually outgrow the parent plant in size? I had never thought about it until recently when my largest ventricosa put out a basal which, after very few leaves, is already far larger than the parent...

For those of you unfamiliar with the wonders of digital painting in Photoshop (LAYERS rule baby!) the digital painting forum I belong to has been promoting this free ONLINE painting software called SUMO Paint. http://www.sumo.fi/products/sumopaint/index.php?id=0 It's almost the exact same as...

Thought y'all should read this in case you're thinking of installing an electric fence! We have the standard 6ft. fence in the backyard, and a few months ago, I heard about burglaries increasing dramatically in the entire city. To make sure this never happened to me, I got an electric fence...

While in Berlin I had the chance to visit the German Technical Museum, among its many fine collections are some of the rarer seen Nazi tools of warfare "Biber" one man mini sub, used in the final months of the war as primarily a defensive weapon, most of the operators died of CO2 poisioning...

I am putting together a plant display for our local Aquarium, and am attempting to compile a bit of very "basic" educational info to accompany the plant material. While reviewing the threads in this section I came upon this thread: http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90482 Would...

Hello, I am new to CP's and to plants in general. I run a custom shop and build custom cars and trucks, so this is a stretch for me, but something that I am eager to learn about. I have read and researched these plants extensively, but I still have a few questions. I ordered an Akai Ryu red...

My plans for 2' x 4' growing chamber - UPDATE: Work on it has begun! My wife has finally given me the okay to go ahead and grow CPs again! But she has limited me to one single tank. With that as a guideline I am planning the biggest tank I can make and still be able to grow a good variety of...

what %age and color should i get it in? i want to allow maximum light in, but minimum heat. i assume that when its 60% shade cloth, it blocks 60% of the light, but how about heat? i thought of putting nepenthes outside next year, but now my sphagnum needs it more. half my sphagnum collection...

as my outdoor VFT gets ready for its first winter dormancy, im wondering how i should handle watering schedule. i think i will keep it in the storage room in the carport (protect it from possibly freezing solid?). i assume it wont need the full tray of water, but how much water will it need...
