fungus

I've got a bunch of Sarr seeds (Pyro/adnedarn's giveaway) that are just starting to germinate, and a couple of them have fungus on them. I can't get a clear picture of the fungus, but here's what I do have. What should I do? I've never treated plants that weren't even "seedlings" yet. Spray...

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...

Hi everyone i made this cutting a couple of months back and it rooted nice considering i see growth...Before the red newer "Healthy" leaf appeared there were non pitchering fungus infected leaves...So i cut most of them away except for 1 which is producing a pitcher...So now that the plant isn't...

This stuff is originating in some of my water trays. I use distilled water and the effected pots are under a fluorescent light. Water typically sits in some of the trays for long periods because I don't want to soil to dry out. I can't take a pic because it's clear and I can't get a clear shot...

OK. Lay it on the line. What are options for insecticides when it comes to cp's? I sometimes just stare at my plants like i'm watching them grow (who doesn't right) and its not uncommon for me to find a few aphids on my capensis so I'll pick em off with tweezers. but today I was staring and the...

Hi, all! The other day, I noticed that all of the pitchers' lids on my Hummer's Giant were closed. From the knowledge I've gained from several of you, I thought it simply to be a humidity problem, as I saw my humidity gauge had registered 30% at one point, and my humidifier was running...? I...

Or something's growing on it. I was checking on my two sundews last night before I went to bed. I noticed one pot looked grey, while the other was brown. Oddly enough, the sundew in the grey looks healthier. You can see the difference in the last one. The one in question is 100%...

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...

Some of my new Cephalotus pitchers are developing with some white sediment looking material on them. It almost looks like a calcium deposit but the water I'm using is distilled so this cant be it. Is this normal of new pitchers or is it some fungus due to lack of circulation of air? I'll post a...

Been awhile since I posted Ceph pics... got that Dreaded fungus and had a problem with that for awhile which set all my plants back. But I beat the fungus again and the plants have recovered. Still not back to where they were yet. Anyways: One Plant I have In the tank Fancy pot pic...

i have fungus gnat larvae in my pot that i just put a whole bunch of nepenthes seeds in to sprout! i heard they will eat the seeds. what can i do? im guessing theyve been there the whole time since i leave my bale of peat moss outside under the porch....

Need some advice on whether or not I should repot. I received this Ceph about 8 months ago and decided to put it in a larger pot. I didn't want to disturb the roots so I basically slid the ceph out of the 3.5 inch pot it was in soil and all and put it into a new pot with more soil. Now I am...

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...

Hi all, just picked up some Root Shield which has 1.15% Trichoderma harzianum Rifai Strain KRL-AG2 for my Cephalotus I know a couple of people here use Trichoderma harzianum, is this a good enough brand? How much should I use per gallon of water? How much should I water my Cephalotus with? And...

I just ordered a filiformis ssp filiformis, and at the crown, it is white and fuzzzy. is this fungus? Please respond ASAP, i am about to plant it and need to know if i should spray it/

I've been doing some research on D. nidiformis, since I'll be gaining some seeds of the species from CPlantaholic's major seed giveaway, (Thanks a whole lot!), and I found that some websites say that the plant is quite susceptable to a fungus that makes it lose its dew and turns its leaves red...

I just discovered some nasty little fungus gnat larvae chewing away my pygmies and was wondering if it's ok to use neem oil on them and/or if it will have any adverse affects. I bought some today (good timing, huh) and mixed a relatively weak solution for my sarrs at about 5:00 PM. Is it still...

Alaskan sphagnum bog Great Sundew (drosera anglica) Round-Leaf Sundew (drosera rotundifolia) Bladderwort (utricularia minor?) We happened to be there right at the start of rough-skinned newt breeding season. Here's the pond This is just a cool fungus formation I don't know if this is...

Very recently, I've seen that some fungus gnats have been popping out of one of me D. capensis pots and I don't really mind it, but I see a couple of new ones every day. Would you guys consider this something to be concerned about, because if there is a BIG amount of larvae beneath the soil, I...
