greenhouse

Thought I'd show my method for growing U. nelumbifolia, since I've had a few requests for info. Nothing special really, just a couple 5 gallon buckets. The orange one has some holes drilled in the bottom. The black one is for holding RO water. The media is pure live LFS. The plant grows in the...

My attenboroughii is over an inch now and my vent x max x talang seedlings are growing like weeds. They're in the terrarium now, but their soil is starting to break down (algae/ bacteria) so I want to repot each into a final pot... Kinda inconvienient since winter is a terrible time to harden...

Hi all. Wife decided my cacti had stabbed too many of the cats during winters past. Both seem to like to sit on bright windowsills..... so we had a problem. Needless to say, we saw a coupon to grab a 6'x8' Harbor Freight greenhouse at $200. I was at the store within 10 minutes of the newspaper...

Hi everyone! I just built one of the infamous harbor freight 6'x8' greenhouses. It's been great to have so far and I'm slowly stocking it full of cacti, succulents, Pings, and Drosera. It is heated to 40F and goes anywhere from 50-70F during the day. I check it twice a day and noticed that...

I got three N. spathulata crosses about two months ago and have been growing them in a spare greenhouse at school. They have been growing well and have increased leaf size, but all of the pitchers have aborted. Conditions are full sun, day temps: 70-75, night temps 50-55, moderate...

a while back i tried to trade it a way but it never worked out, so as things go in life I am happy to say i finally took the house by the scruff, it was not easy it had to be moved 50 + miles. i couldnt find a rental with a large enough opening to get it inside, so i rented a u-haul travel...

I just got some greenhouse space at work, so I've started to grow Nepenthes again after taking a break for the better part of the decade. A nursery I've gotten plants from before is offering two crosses I'm interested in growing, N. truncata x merrilliana "Caesar", and N. "thorellii" x (truncata...

I'm looking to set up fairly basic, low tech grow chamber for Nepenthes in my apartment. I have some highland neps growing in a greenhouse where I work, but low day temps and a short photoperiod is making their growth come to a screeching halt. I had originally planned to get a terrarium, but I...

Hi guys! I'm setting up an indoor greenhouse and was wondering how the grow lights will fare with the high humidity atmosphere inside the greenhouse. I am concerned about the electrical dangers as well as regular corrosion on the metal parts of the lights. Also, we don't keep that part of the...

So this is my first year--and first will be first winter--growing Sarracenia indigenous to the extreme southern portion of the genus's range. The plants I am thinking of in particular are of course S. psittacina, a few of its related hybrids, and S. rosea in addition to S. purpurea ssp. venosa...

Hi, Are there any pitcher plants or carnivorous plants that do not need a terrarium to grow? I would like to be able to grow something medium-large in size on a West-facing window sill. It is a large windowsill. or do they all need very high humidity that can only be given in a greenhouse or...
