    Hello from Michigan!

    Hello, my name is Nick :) I live in Richmond, Michigan. I currently have a small indoor greenhouse rigged with lights and a homemade humidifier for Nepenthes and any other tropical cp's I find to like, along with a couple cacti. I have a few sarracenia/temperate sundews/VFT's that are going...

    Changes

    First, my apologies to all whom are owed something from me (mostly email / PM responses but possibly more in some cases). Second, I hate internet drama & this message may come across as some permutation of that - so, once again, my apologies. My wife & I have been planning for many years to...

    Greetings from SC...

    I got into CPs while working for the SC Dept. of Natural Resources. My work brought me into contact with carnivorous plants in their natural habitat here in SC. I just become enamored with them. I met a propagator on assignment once and he sent me home with a mini bog garden. I've been growing...

    Is the grass greener on the outside??

    One of my Nepenthes decided to check and see if the grass was greener on the outside of the greenhouse. I saw it when it was first traveling outside and figured what the heck, lets see what happens! And today I noticed that the pitcher seems to have formed just fine. Maybe because it's not...

    Build Your Own Greenhouse Tips Needed

    So I have a small section of deck maybe 4x4 that is partially shaded but gets bright light and I think it would be ideal for growing Drosera, Heliamphora and a few other assorted CP's but I'm not certain what the best way to enclose it would be.It has a 3 ft. High railing in place that should...

    Darlingtonia germination

    Hello, Does anybody have a good method of germinating Darlingtonia seeds? This will be my second time after 0% the first time. I cold stratified for 3 weeks and sowed in peat/perlite mix under mist last time. This time will be stratified for 4 weeks and then in a tray under lights (I have...

    Nepenthes robcantleyi and N. truncata comparison

    Just for fun placing this species side by side. Unfortunately the pitcher of the N. robcantleyi got bruised when I was cleaning the greenhouse and knocked it over a week ago.:censor: Ramon:D Nepenthes robcantleyi and N. truncata

    Missing lots of labels, need help! (Drosera and Pinguicula)

    I am in charge of the CP's in the greenhouse at my university (this will be my second year actually) and many of the labels are either faded or missing. I'm more of a Sarracenia and Nep guy, so I need a bit of help identifying some Drosera and Pinguicula. Please excuse the weeds...part of trying...

    End of Summer Greenhouse Update 2015

    Short update on my intermedia and highland nepenthes. I live in Florida and this is the hottest time of the year, therefore, not many pitchers form. Hope you enjoy! HERE IS THE LINK TO THE VIDEO OF THE GREENHOUSE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xhl3OuPzUsM&feature=em-upload_owner

    CPs at the Oregon Garden

    I visited the Oregon Garden in Silverton, Oregon for the first time yesterday, expecting to find a number of different CPs. Here is what I was able to locate: A small bog next to the children's garden in the "weird plants" section. The plants look quite new and not particularly healthy to...

    Front Porch Neps

    I have some plants that I have been waiting to take pics of. I pulled them from the greenhouse a little early and most stopped growing. I have a Bical pitcher I'm excited about, but it is a little wonky.:-( I have a couple more, but I want to wait till they look more presentable. [/URL][/IMG]...

    Drosera Seed Smorgasbord

    Happy birthday to me! :boogie: A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin (theplantman) and exploring the greenhouse that he curates. I ended up going home with a bunch of cuttings and more seed than I could ever sow, so I am going to share the generosity that others have shown me...

    CPs at the US Botanic Garden!

    For all of you who were expecting an amazing display of horticultural wonders, I sincerely apologize. A few years ago, I took a trip to DC and only saw a single terrarium housing some light-starved Sarracenia and Dionaea. I returned recently, full of optimism, eager to see to what was hopefully...

    Sarracenia Mid-Season Kill count

    I have been neglecting my Sarracenia Clusters of photos, time for a night excursion. (Sorry pictures suck. IT was really dark with a bad flashlight.) I thought the greenhouse would be the best location for my bog plants, But its not so. A good amount of light is lacking, so next season im...

    Hamatas on windowsills

    Does anyone here do this? I know a guy who does this with a Hamata and a Jamban and he has success with it. When I say "windowsill", by the way, I mean any plant that is NOT grown in either a terrarium/chamber or a greenhouse. The particular guy I'm talking about has growlights, but he still...

    Recommend a Quality Greenhouse

    I'm in the market for a greenhouse. I'm wondering if you guys could recommend a quality maker ? What are you guys using? nd what would you recommend I stay away from? The size I'm looking for is at least 10 feet wide, 14 at the max and somewhere between 16-20 feet long. Looking forward to...

    How often do you water?

    I would like to ask, 1. What plants do you grow? 2. What setup are they in (terrarium inside, outside au naturel, outside in greenhouse, etc.)? 3. Artificial lights or sun, and the amount of hours directly exposed to the sun and/or bulb(s) 4. Potting mix (rough estimate... 1:1 peat: perlite...
