    Cutoff Point for Pitcher Formation?

    About a month ago, my N. ventricosa x talangensis dropped down a tendril about 10" to the moss in the pots around it. The tendril has been squirming around, but it is not evident that a pitcher is forming. Not sure if it’s going to produce a pitcher or not. Both basals on the plant have...

    Miranda repoted

    I got a N. miranda back in July. I found it at a flea market for a good price. It was pretty big so I grabbed it. I don't leave my plants in full sun like this. This was just for a little while as I moved things around and for taking pics. I have some gourds that grew very well in the...

    N. lowii x truncata! Finally!

    I had a little bit of extra money once i got some priorities taken care of, and could not pass up the chance when i saw this baby come available, it is an original lowii x truncata, the main vines had been removed some time ago by the previous owner, but the plant is still of rather considerable...

    First attempt at planted nano tank.

    Just wanted to show my first planted tank well actually tank ever. Hopefully all the plants do well and I cant wait until the baby tears make a carpet. I just had one little mishap from the diffuser breaking in half in the middle of the night, after the first day it was setup. Must have been...

    Couple extra pings

    I have an extra P. Potosiensis and an extra P. Gypsicola x sp. Kohres. These are flowering size plants, not baby clones that need a year to grow out. What have you got? Looking for mex. pings or maybe drosera. I ship USPS, you do the same- Birdman

    Set up for growing sphagnum moss

    I have recently "harvested" some moss from my pots of pitcher plants and to increase my growing area's humidity and being able to propagate more moss for potting, i have set up a "moss patch" for the moss to grow using i put LFS ontop of those things, and then put a layer of LSM on them then i...

    Truncata Potted in Bark?

    I'v had my little 3" Pasian Highlands truncata baby for a month now. I ordered it from a terrarium supply website, so it wasn't strictly carnivores, so they may or may not have been knowledgeable. Oddly to me, this nep was potted in strictly small, thin pieces of bark. Is there a reason for...

    2 Litre Nepenthes Hydroponics

    Well, i've been staring at a 2 liter soda bottle, sitting next to my royal truncata (i'm ashamed to say the little baby is my only nep) and, thinking about the fact that my parents said they might let me get a ventricosa, i thought i might be able to make a long-term impromptu (if that's not an...

    My first attempt at growing pings on rock...

    Swords' Photo Threat

    Recycle those plastics for CP use.

    I'll start with the most obvious.. empty milk jugs for RO water. Beanie Baby cubes & Lowe's death cubes. All drilled out and ready for use. They make great clear pots for cephs and regia, which have really long roots. Also going to be converting my tuberous dew collection to these pots...

    My lone, unidentified nepenthes..

    Hello everyone, Here it is, my only unidentified nep! Went to check on a tiny pitcher formation today and realized there was a larger pitcher growing sideways, which is perhaps large enough for this baby to finally be identified (even if only roughly for the time being). What do you think...
