bugs

Well, recently there have been a lot of flies around my Sarracenia bog. A lot of flies are usually around here in general. Anyways, one Sarracenia of mine, the Rubra, did not have enough digestive fluids to reach the one fly; my Rubra is filled to the top with bugs. Now, the fly is just flying...

With the weather finally getting hot, there's an explosion of bugs. This here spider made it web on my Philodendron so I gave him a fruit fly.

Anybody have any idea what this is Pics~ http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/album/578155743edbvan Sprouted up in one of the pots in my greenhouse / So I potted it up for the fun of it Now it looks like there's sprouts of it popping up in several other pots Have a Sundew pot that's full of...

Here are some pictures of a 6 inch pot full of little baby B. liniflora! Aren't they cute! When they fill the pot up and get bigger they will be a nightmare for bugs :-O

Don't you just hate these bugs ? ;)

Can someone diagnose my plants for me? Growing in a 50 gal terrarium under 3 ft T10 lights about a foot away. Other Nepenthes growing strong right next to these with seemingly no side effects. I first thought pests, but generally the damage is much more irregular with bugs. My second...

Hey guys just watering my plants and noticed June bugs getting caught by most of my sarrs. Here's a few pics. (EC) Drew

PICTURES (After My Grand RePotting!) So, some of you may know that I've had a season from hell- First pests, and then evidently bad peat! So, today, I finally had everything aligned. Fresh, brand new 1-gallon sized pots. A fresh bale of peat, 20 gallons of distilled water (the fish guy at the...

I'm trying to select a plant that is suitable for a beginner and will take care of the gnats, fruit flies, and possibly mosquitoes that are rampant in my area. It seems that butterworts and sundews are most popular for these problems. I'm leaning toward the sundews, since they can eat slightly...

So after the past several posts, my garden is only taking a decline. It's not too much water, or too little. There's always about 1" of water in all of the trays. Contrary to the overcast day, they typically get lots and lots of bright and direct sun. I only use distilled water, or collected...

If I touch the soil of one of my VFT's flys come out of it. They are very small. Im a bit worried as I only bought it a couple of days ago =( Should it be kept separate from the rest? Thanks :) ---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ---------- Ive just...

I got some tiny bugs on my new neps, they're about 0,1 to 0,25 mm. I haven't seen a lot of them, maybe 2 or 3 total, and small threads gowing from the growing tips to other parts of the plants. The plant in the picture is the talangensis in my picture thread. Does anyone know what they are ?

As previously posted, I have terrible, annoying, black bugs that are disgusting and overcoming every pot in my collection. It was suggested that I flood them out, unfortunately, I don't have the water resources to do that. Upon further contemplation, I recalled how they died instantaneously upon...

Hmm I'm pretty perplexed by what's happened to my plants in the last month. Ever since I posted pics of my outdoor collection in the Greenhouse/Terrarium thread, I've come back to a progressive die-off of many of my Sarracenias and Dionaeas. Many of the tall Sarracenias suddenly shriveled from...

In the form of a severe thunderstorm with winds which blew over my portable greenhouse. My tray of sundews, tray of highland Nepenthes, individual lowlanders, and my tray of Sarracenia seedlings all got tossed. I knew it was going to rain, so the seedlings and Neps were in there for...

I don't have any pictures because they're very small, very quick, and don't like being exposed. But I just discovered them early this morning in a couple of my plants, which were not doing too well. When I saw them, they were crawling over the rhizome and through the soil. I didn't check every...
