cut

Hello! I have had this D. Capensis for about 5 months now, and this is the second time it has begun to produce a flowering stem. The first time I cut it off, as I have heard that it takes quite a bit of energy from the plant and I was uninterested (and too busy) at the time to deal with it...

Thought it was time I share how I was able to turn 3 D. schizandra into many, in just a matter of months. Here's the original thread of when I first started this D. schizandra container. http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php/133152-upgrade-D-schizandra Since then the plants became...

Hey guys, so it is that time of year when the NCSU greenhouses need to be cleaned up some and I will be taking home dozens and dozens of cuttings of the confirmed FEMALE Nepenthes 'Rokko' they have had since the 1980s. This is one of the original plants from Japan when the original cross was...

The container slipped from my hand and reacting to keep it from hitting the floor my thumbnail cut the plant off at ground level......S**T! I pulled 3 old leaves from the bottom, put a little hormone on and replanted with a pill cup over the top. Should I continue placing it into the unheated...

Axelrod's CPs Ok new thread, and I'm going to try to confine my questions and stuff to here now that I feel like I might be starting to get the hang of things...a little. Previous threads: http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php/135461-How-am-I-doing-so-far...

I was wondering if I can have the lights be on for several hours and off for one hour and come back on for several more hours, maybe repeating this for about 3 times before the lights go off for the night. Will this effect photosynthesis greatly? Mainly I want to cut cost of electricity bill.

I swear I saw a recipe thread, but now I can't seem to find it. Without much more ado, share your great recipes. I've seen several in the last couple days in the chat that others might like to try. Ready, set, saute! ETA: SOMEbody wouldn't let me post this without a starter recipe. Okey...

I'm about at that point where I need to expand my Lowland Nepenthes grow area and I'm looking for input to help me avoid possible problems. I'm currently growing them in Exo-terra 24" X 18" X 18" tanks, I've already had to cut a few vines due to height problems and now I'm getting close to the...

USA only, open to anyone... Contest over 10pm EST Christmas day No clue what species it will be or how large, but likely a good starter for the masses. If interested, simply list your name below; add numbers as necessary; do that whole "cut and paste" you're so familiar with . . . 1. 2...

Hey Everyone: I bought a ~30 gallon aquarium and got it fitted for a glass lid, intended on using it as another step up when my Neps outgrew their current space. Unfortunately, I accidentally cracked the bottom pretty badly, badly enough that the glass has to be replaced. I went to the local...

Hey Everyone: I noticed on a few different threads discussing D. binata that some growers were complaining that their D. binata was sterile, but kept sending up flower stalks. I thought I'd share that I recently did a little experiment with 'Marston Dragon' after reading about the species on...

This is embarassing, but I thought it might be interesting (?) to show what resulted when I neglected some Heliamphora. Eldercare iossues have demanded a lot of time the past few years, and my plants have suffered. Proper clean up and repotting has not been given enough attention. Anyway...

I received this N. Miranda cutting during the summer and it has made slow but steady progress since I potted it in living sphagnum upon arrival. I realize now, with this being my first cutting, that I should have cut it down to a few nodes instead of leaving it full length. Since it is making...

My nepenthes have done rather well for several years, I don't see pitchers very often but I get a ton of growth, and I root cuttings with ease. That's until I noticed my leafs were starting to yellow, get powdery, and the growing points were starting to die off. I cut back all of them, held off...

Hi everyone! I just built one of the infamous harbor freight 6'x8' greenhouses. It's been great to have so far and I'm slowly stocking it full of cacti, succulents, Pings, and Drosera. It is heated to 40F and goes anywhere from 50-70F during the day. I check it twice a day and noticed that...

Here is a picture of a healthy leaf (left) in comparison to the effected leaf (right) which i have cut off. All new growth is looking like the deformed leaf. The deformed leaves still make perfect pitchers though. I have seen no bugs (besides fungus gnats) and i check every other day. Anyone...

Hello! Fairly new to the forums, asking all sorts of questions all over the place for my new 3 plants, but I really want to get everything right and not have a graveyard on my hands! I just finished setting up a new terrarium, got brand new lights, and figured out how to keep the darn thing at...
