ga3

Hey all, As some of you may know, I'm still an undergrad . Seeing as I love CPs, and I need to do something to kind of "get my name out there" so I can get into med school (haha), I was considering doing an experiment, and subsequently writing a paper on the effect of GA3 on Nepenthes seeds and...

Hi all, Finally, I found a method for germinating Drosophyllum lusitanicum seed under my growing conditions. Previously, I tried scarifying the seed, soaking in 500ppm GA3 for 24h, and placing them in a tube of distilled water (changed daily). I also tried scarifying them, soaking in 500ppm GA3...

I have found a couple places to get GA3 powder, but the two better priced places I found had it for 6 and some change for 5 grams of 20% pure powder and 5 bucks for 100mg of 90% pure powder. The 5 grams of 20% pure powder sounds like a better deal, since when I was doing some PPM calculations, I...

Some seed grown Byblis: Byblis rorida (Taylor's Lagoon) in flower. Apparently this is the only Byblis species whose petals are not identical- the lower two petals in the picure are larger than the other three. I've read somewhere that this is evidence that Pinguicula and Byblis are closely...

I've scarified and soaked (24 h in 500ppm GA3) P.louisianica seed and am ready to sow them in 1:2 peat:perlite mix on a heat mat. Should the seed be placed on the surface of the medium or buried (and if so, at what depth)? Thanks.

Up for bids: 15+ I. lutea seeds with enough GA3 (Gibberillic Acid) to aid in germination. Easy to grow once started provided you have a long, warm growing season. NOT a true carnivore, but definitely worth growing for seed pods alone. Plants grow large and beg for attention with gluey mucilage...

Does anyone know which Petiolaris Complex seed require the "smoke" treatment or GA3 in order to germinate? thanks, Homer

Hi, I got some seeds of nice tuberous Drosera species. As most species have the attitude of being hard to germinate, I read about some tricks. Once I tried GA3 with no great success, so I wanted to use a heat or fire treatment this time. Then I read on a orchid webpage (...

Hi everyone, Does anyone grow Ibicella lutea? I noticed that the stigma of the flower closes immediately(like a flytrap) after contact with pollen, perhaps to preventing self-pollination. None of my Proboscidea does this. PS: I have some seeds of sp. for sase. You will have to use GA3 to...

Yes, the nights are getting chilly here in upstate New York bring good germination of the South African wintergrowing species, and a good indication that now is the time to get the Australian tuberous species going again. I have returned my tuberous species to cultivation: watering the pots that...
