For all of you who are new to leos or need help with one you already have, I hope this helps. I spent a couple days writing and planning this on paper, so here goes.
INTRO: Leopard Geckos (Eublepharis macularis) are a species originating in the desert areas of the Middle East. This species has...
Well, one of my Gentle's two existing pitchers is withering, but the other one's still alive.
It's very slow-growing, it's only produced two new pitchers since I've got it, but both are tiny - about 2cm compared to the existing 13cm ones.
In addition, neither pitcher produces nectar or...
hi i just bought a matured n.gentle with 3 ,6 inch pitchers...but unfortunately all the 3 pitchers are drying up...anyway, someone did a cutting on this n gentle and now it has small leaves with 2-3 inch pitchers...how long will the plant get "matured" again?
Edit: Changed the temp info to better clarify temp range.
So, after a few weeks of speratic work, the first draft is done. Sorry, my editor hasn't looked at it yet so their may be like a million typos and bad spell-checker words, but I'd like to here your comments and sugestions so I can get...

I purchased what is labeled as "Nepenthes Gentle" today. It's in quite bad shape but there is 4 growing points to restart new plants from. But the image on the tag shows what looks like my big plant of "N. maxima x ? #1 Red" which makes slightly peltate leaves and 25 cm pitchers. I half bought...
Ok, I have noticed these little little bugs moving around my soil, usually blowing a gentle breeze on them will stir them all up and you see them all moving at once, otherwise they can stand still for a while. Are these things harmful? I would like to take a pic, but I really think that they are...
So, you know you are going to be getting 20 or so new species this season, right?! A good idea is to mix your medium now. Why wait? After rinsing the sand (and hopefully the peat) I fill my pots with the mix, and I leave these exposed to the elements to further leach: the longer they get rained...
Wow, I can't believe how many people are into this. I'm a new guy so please be gentle. I looking for a setup for 7 to 10 VFTs. I am very interested in four varities including several Red Dragons. I will be starting with bulbs. What would be the best setup for these plants? I want easy...
Here's my Ball Python. They're exceptionally gentle if any of you are thinking about a snake, and they don't get big, hardly ever more that 5 feet or so.
I only feed my pitchers once due to my fear of loosing a pitcher so I was wondering, in some of the slower coloring Nep pitchers if they are active upon fully opening or if their final colors (such as on the peristome) must fully develop before food is added to the pitcher?
Also should I be...
Let me know of any blatant errors... and please be gentle. I'm a sensitive guy.

Under construction by the way. Still have pings to go. Don't have any utric pics but I do have Aldrovanda pics (even though I don't have any left).
Thank you so much to the professional, kind voices of reason who posted favorable comments regarding Petflytrap/Exotic Gardens on the CP listserv...to name a few...Tamlin Dawnstar, Mike King, and a gentleman named Joseph Clemens. They are all stars in my book!
This may be a bit lengthy but here...
