germinate

My family grows a garden outside and we (mainly me) sprout some of our plants indoors to get them an early start. All the seeds except the pepper seeds germinate extremely well. This is most likely due to the cool temperature of the basement that are germinated in. Since im going to be moving...

Hey there, I haven't been as active as I would like, but I've been busy making my Sarracenia seed growing chamber/box/thingy. :-D All of these seeds have come from generous members of TF, specifically Not a Number, joossa, and Millipede. :hail: Thanks you guys so much! This is my first time...

Ok so there has been a lot of discussion around Nepenthes seeds and how to do it and I know there are a bunch of different threads on that, but I wanted to inform you all on what I've learned as a horticulture major and my theories as to how it relates to Nepenthes and their seed germination...

Thinking of getting some seed. So what is the best way to make it grow?

I want to get some drosera to put in my greenhouse sphagnum cultures. The greenhouse is 50-60F at night and 70-85F during the day depending on the season. So I'll probably want something tropical or close to it because I don't want to deal with dormancy and I don't want to dig up...

First, this morning I went to do a misting of my various nepenthes seeds, and was happy to see both raf and amp seedling after about 3 weeks now! I have plenty more varieties I'm waiting on, but it was great to know I'm doing something right. Thanks everyone for the hundred questions I've had...

Ive had alot of good luck germinating lowland Nepenthes in my conditions. I am trying to germinate highland nepenthes seeds by putting the seed trays in a timer controlled refrigerator at night that gets down to about 47F at night. Day temps are kept around 80f and r/h about 65%, about 16 hours...

I recently got some powdered Gibberellic Acid (GA3) 90% to help germinate some D.pauciflora and D.glanduligera seeds. I cant seem to find any definitive information on how many ppm to use in the solution. I've heard everything from 150 ppm to 1000 ppm Have any of you used this with any success...

My Drosera venusta had a nice big flower stalk, and these are the seeds. Do you think they will grow? Do I need to germinate under lights, or can I have them start outside in the sun?

I picked up a few seeds of D. cistiflora "Red Flower" last weekend. How exactly do I get these to germinate. I heard about heat stratification, but can't find any info on it.

Hey TF, I did a cross earlier this year of spathulata x truncata and now have some seeds to giveaway. The seed pods popped open over the weekend while I was at ICPS so the seed is fresh. This offer is for any grower, but please be confident that you can germinate Nepenthes seeds. I have...

Hello everyone. Today is a very exciting day in my HL Nepenthes chamber to say the least. My Nepenthes spathulata's flower stalk has finally been harvested after 6 months of patience where I waited and hoped that I would get a few fat live seeds from the only two pods that survived from the...

Hi, Awhile back I obtained some mature plants from a house where an estate sale was being held. I kept a few, sent out a few in trade. Yesterday, I noticed that on one a seed pod had formed and matured and turned brown. It split open and appears to be have lots of seeds, small and thin...

I will soon be getting Darlingtonia Californica seeds in a trade and I want to make sure I do everything right. I know some people have been annoyed by how much I ask about this on the chatbox so I have just decided to start a thread. So here goes What kind of media should I use? Will long...

I have a tray of nep seedlings that i have some small plants with very small pitchers and now i am getting more seedlings starting to germinate right next to the older plants. I am wondering how big do the seedlings need to be before you can separate them out to allow them to grow with competition.

I ordered some seed from a certain eBay seller who is mostly considered trustworthy. I sowed the seed on January 13th. After 2 months I finally have germination. Just noticed them yesterday. I had kinda forgot about them after checking them nearly daily for a few weeks. Seems that's when most...
