Now that the frost fear is over I decided to move the cephs out of the terraium and back outside. This is their temp home for a week or so. All made from spare parts around the house.
After the first week I will remove the shade cloth.
Do people here, especially those who grow more sensitive plants like Cephs, heli's, etc, wash their media before they plant? I've been known to wash my Orchid Bark, Peat, and APS in filtered water until I get a PPM of less than 50. Thoughts?

For some time I have been watching an eBay seller offering Ceph's that apparently lost the ID tags and might be one of the giant varieties. He might be right because the one I bought from his website as a typical variety is a fairly small plant and producing some pitchers approaching 1.5". I...
