I moved upstate a few years ago and my collection has grown exponentially. I am interested in all types of carnivorous plants but...

    Polytunnel/Hoop house Automatic watering

    Hi Everyone, I have been given the opportunity to have a Polytunnel built in a family members yard as mine is way to small for a setup like this. The tunnel will measure in at: 4 meter width and 8 meter length. I might divide it into two segments, one for none-carnivorous plants and one for...

    Hello from Belgium : )

    My name is Morgane, I'm 23 and I started growing carnivorous (and other) plants since last August. I already liked plants before, but the fact that I lived in a north oriented student room with a tiny window kept me from growing anything else than a bonsai. Now I live in a south-west oriented...

    Substrate for N.campanulata

    So I'm just getting into Nepenthes and other carnivorous plants in my vivariums. My first attempts were growing N.ampullaria from seeds, and growing sundews on a moss drip wall. So far I've had success. Now I have a N.campanulata on order. I'm debating putting it in a terrarium with frogs where...

    What pinguicula is this?

    I just received this but it had no ID and I have no idea what ping it might be. I notice it has no dew on leaves so I think they are winter non carnivorous leaves. Here are the photos: Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet Thank you for the help.

    Venus fly trap soil.

    I have some venus fly traps that I would like to re-pot this spring. Is spring the best time or summer to re-pot? What is the best mix? They are currently living in pure spagnum. They seem to be thriving in it. Is this optimal? I have one that is in a carnivorous soil mix that it came in. It is...

    This thread is in no way intended to be an endorsement of illegal marijuana use. Indeed, one could infer from this discussion that consumption of trichome resin is harmful. One internet writer showed photos of cannabis trichomes, claiming: "There is no other plant like this in nature". I...
