About a month ago I posted a question about a 'strange spike thingy,' regarding the mini bog garden in this post. Since this is a photo post, and not a question, I decided to start a new one, and will update this post as my little pot grows along. I think this might be a subject for people to...

It says it's not a fertilizer, would it be safe for cps? probably not. But please answer it. i got some, and was wo0ndering if it could work
I spent a half our at both Home Depot and Lowes today(no other big chain stores around here that I can think of) trying to find some perlite for repotting my plants. Neither store had anything but Miracle-Gro Perlite, which says it includes fertilizer.
I may be a huge noobie to growing CP's...
Been a while since I made myself known here.
I took these shots today. I have been feeding the pitchers twice a month with a urea free liquid fertilizer. Seems to be helping, my hamata has really put on some good growth.

For some reason, my Drosera Capensis has stopped producing tentacles. The plant is pretty small and I'm not sure what's wrong. It's growing in peat soil (no fertilizer). It gets watered with distilled water about twice a week. And it gets an hour or two of direct sun a day, the rest of the time...
Up for auction is one rooted cutting (shipped bare root) an unknown variety of Brugmansia.
Last year, in a two gallon pot, my plant was 3' tall and 5' wide.....and flowered 5 or 6 times durring the growing season. The flowers are the typical trupet shape from which the common name, "Angel's...
I found this article while surfing, and I found it fascinating and I think you will too. This is a plant we don't hear much about.
The article itself has pictures of both the plant and its bug. http://www.kew.org/msbp/plantstories/Roridula_dentata.htm
Here are some shots of a few of my Heliamphora, taken as I was fertilizing the lot with 30:10:10 orchid fertilizer, and trimming away some dead winter leaves. Even though the H. ionasii plants below germinated at the same time, about half the pot still remains in a juvenile state. There is...
Hi all!
I have these 2 Monstera deliciosas, and i have a few questions about them, some here might be able to answer..
In all the articles ive read about them, it basically says 'shady or indirect light, lots of water and fertilizer'. I have one on a sill and the other in my bedroom where its...
I'm not real great with Neps and was wondering what is wrong with mine. I've looked through tons of posts here but haven't found anything to give me a good answer. I'm not sure whether it's just getting too much sun (east window), too cold, mites, a fungus, needing fertilizer (hasn't had...
The title says it all. Any other informal amateur fiction writers out there?
Here's something related to plants that I wrote for Creative Writing. I was kind of hyper when I wrote it.

It’s so dry in here… haven’t...

I posted this on CPUK forum but i am trying to get as much info on this as possible so those who have already read this...forgive me:-)
I grow my plants in terrarium but this contribution to the forum is not as much about terraria as it is about artificial feeding of CPs so if needed please move...
Hey everyone,
In light of the new updates, I wanted to provide some information about one of the new features: Tags. As I mentioned in the announcement thread, I am a member of another forum that uses these very effectively. They will only become effective the more they are used, since they...
Hi
I am here because I bought a new pitcher plant and I want to really take care of it.
I had a pitcher plant that died months ago and now I am restarting.
When I was a kid (about 7 years old), I had a Venus fly trap and was absolutely amazed by it. To help it grow, I added a lot of fertilizer...
Living in the temperature hell that is Florida, my other hobby is raising tortoises. They poop alot. Each day I can easily fill a 5 gallon utility pail when I clean up their yard area. Wanting to be more earth friendly, I think I want to compost this instead of constantly throwing it away...

would be bad for my plants?
Just making sure I'm not feeding them herbicide :rolleyes:
The instructions say to use 1/4 of a teaspoon every day or 1/2 every...
I think I'm going to give Terracycle another shot. I stopped using it because I thought it was rip off when it comes to price, but now I'm going to play with it again since I'm downsizing anyway and it has less crap in it than what I already use. Maybe it won't burn one of my plants, is what I'm...
