fungicide

Long story short (not really) the binata was one of the most vigorous growers before I moved back to school. After that the newest leaves just halted growing and I figured it was just stressed (temps spiked to 90F+ and it was a bumpy ride) so I trimmed them off and assumed it would bounce back...

So I've sown some D. Venusta seeds in a pot with 50/50 peat/pearlite and had them in the pot for a few weeks in the windowsill. After not seeing any results I removed the plastic bag (it's been off for about a week now) and now I'm seeing what I think is some microscopic seedling growth...

I picked up a cheap bottle of EcoSmart(r) Organic(tm) Garden Fungicide at the local Home Depot. The ingredients list is as follows: Rosemary Oil - 0.24% Sodium Lauryl Sulfate - 0.2% Other Ingredients* - 99.56% (Water, Wintergreen Oil, Mineral Oil (U. S. P), Lecithins) Is this safe for CP?

Don't know why... I did the usual. Spray some fungicide and forget about them for the winter. I even lost my adult 'Leah Wilkerson' and 'Hurricane Creek White'. Naturally, all most all of the baby unknown hybrids made it. I guess I can trade those if you want quantity over quality.) Half of the...

I'm trying my hand at raising CPs from seed and cuttings, nepenthes, sarracenia, and drosera in particular. And I'm looking for a good general purpose fungicide that is (a) effective, (b) safe for most CPs, (c) human and pet safe, and (d) does not have a pungent odor. I know this is asking a...

Cultivation of pygmy Drosera Jan Flísek and Kamil Pásek Pygmy Drosera comprise up a peculiar group that include the smallest sundews - small growth is a typical characteristic of this group. Most pygmy Drosera are found in southwestern areas of Western Australia. Only D. pygmaea is found in...

Can anyone recommend a drosera-safe fungicide available in California that I can use on my drosera falconeri. Never had this problem until this year: I see hyphae and fruting bodies growing on the surface of the dried crowns. At first, I just removed the infected leaves and brushed with a light...

Just a couple pics of how i treat some of my large community pots for the winter. I am an upholsterer for a living so I am lucky to have access to sunbrella fabrics. These fabrics are very good for outdoor applications, some of them are awning grade and should last for many years. I use...

There's been a lot of questions regarding fridge dormancy for those of us that do not have access to a garage or shed and live in zones not fit for outside dormancy. There are different methods, this is simply mine. I have had tremendous success using it and hope that those of you that chose to...

I need to purchase a fungicide to lightly spray all my plants that are going in the fridge for dormancy, to prevent fungal growth. Plants to be used on immediately: Sarracenia and flytraps. I do also grow sundew utrics and neps, and plan to have pings in the future. These are the two I'm...

After seeing some 'burning' on a few leaves I thought I'd test the TDS levels of the water and make sure that there were no organics. Turns out the levels in the water were above 100 ppm and after test flushing some pots, one pot ended up being around 650 ppm. I discarded the soil, repotted...

A few weeks ago I noticed some very tiny bugs among one of my U. warburgii. Armed with a loupe & Google, it appears that they were the smallest aphids I've ever seen. Since I've heard that utrics are like dews in their sensitivity to pesticides, I planned on my 1st use of the relatively new (at...

So yeah, I've got a ton of Greenshield (looked it up and it's the same thing as Physan 20.) I sterilize tools and repotting spaces/used pots with it. Is this OK to sterilize new plants with before repotting? It supposedly kills everything.. viruses, fungi, bacteria, and algae. It seems ok to use...

Okay y'all, I need some brainstorming concerning WINTER. You know, that season that plants'll go into dormancy. (I know that officially, Autumn is next, but you know:-() Last year, all my Sarracenia rhizomes, VFT's and Droseras fit into a 3.5 gallon bag, which I plopped in the fridge for the...

A few days ago I found 3 nice beautiful 18" S. flavas at a local store. (local meaning about 1 1/2 hour drive away) When I went to re-pot my flavas tonight I discovered that what I thought were three are actually 8 individual rhizomes. Yipee! However, almost all of them have the white fluffy...

Hey there fellow TF members. It seems as though the makers of Orthonex did not renew their permits for California (or so I was told). If anyone would like to trade a bottle or two of Orthonex (the systemic insecticide and fungicide) for a Nep (rooted or unrooted depending on the trade), I would...

Okay so about a month and a half back, the two Cape Sundews that I had were infected with some damp-off. I used a fungicide to get rid of it, and although it got rid of the fungus, it terribly damaged the plants. Their leaves burned up and one plant shrunk, while sadly, the other died. When I...

Before winter started, i unpotted my D. filiformis [florida giant], sprayed it with fungicide, and put it in the fridge for 6 months. I checked on it today and it has white fungus/mold growing on it. Is this bad?

I live in central Texas where winters give temps ranging from 20s on the colder days and the 40s and 50s on average. Last night it got near freezing and today it will get near 70. I'm overwintering my plants outside and providing protection on the coldest nights. Since they get good air...

Is there an emulsifiable type of fungicide (powder or liquid) that can simply be mixed with water for watering regular houseplants? Or even with carnivorous plants? Something that can treat the soil is what I am seeking... without stressing out the plant. I am so tired of seeing fungus and...
