hood

Here is a small glimpse of what we did today. We rented 2, 4x4 quads and went out to enjoy nature. The trails were a nice mix of fun, and difficult! Here is a still from the video of one of the more difficult climbs... Shortly after this part of the drive, someone gets on the hood of this...

Ok those of you who have followed my updates know I was getting a new tank. Well i got it but it was a 20gal long instead of a 30 gal tall like i thought. So now im building a hood for the tank using the equipment I have on hand. 1- 65w flurex (yard light conversion) 3- 20w 24" floro grow...

Well I just got a 3.6 cu.ft chest freezer for $75 which I think isn't a bad price at all. The internal measurements are 18X18X28 (LXWXH). So I should be able to grow some plants in there to a large size (which should take awhile anyway) before moving them out. I'm planning on getting rajah for...

Just plucked a couple more pods.  These are from S. flava plants obtained from Rone Lane.  As many of you know, Ron is an excellent grower with great plants.  At first, I thought this was S. flava var. maxima because it is very green--no coloring on outside of pitchers or top of hood.  But in...

School....They have you by the b***s. Without it you can't get a good job. While your there you get leached for all your money. You are required to take a load of BS classes in order to get your degree. Books change about as often as some folks change their shorts taking even more money. They...

Hello All, A young man I know recently expressed an interest in carnivorous plants, which in turn got me interested, and so I thought it a good idea to join these forums. My only previous experience with CPs was as a young man myself, when I managed to quickly kill a fly trap bought from the...

The third bog we visited was the Camas Prairie. Accessing the site required a short ramble through the woods. As soon as the trees started thinning, we saw D. rotundifolia. It was growing in moss (not sphagnum), rotting wood... ... and directly in fallen logs: D. anglica was also...

Forbes and I have moved west from the Wallowas, and spent the past two days exploring three locations in the Mt. Hood National Forest. Both D. anglica and D. rotundifolia are relatively widespread in the Oregon Cascades, so much so that in order to get the most out of our trip, we are...

Hi: I won these plants on ebay.  I've scoured the internet searching for information.  Would someone please tell me if I have managed to track down the correct information? The plants won are bolded. I'd like to know correct names if any are id'd incorrectly. Dana's Delight is a cross of...

I just changed up my terrarium setup by adding another tank and some new light bulbs/tubes. Here's how my setup goes: The new terrarium I got is a 10 gallon. I also got a new reptile light hood that holds two incandescent bulbs and one flourescent tube. So I got new bulbs to go with this new...

I'd been planing on doing this since me and my grandmother got in the same semi-monthly fight about my 29-gallon fish tank when we cleaned it, so I got sick of that crap and decided I couldn't deal with cleaning the tank as much as I needed to, so I got the fish tank converted to a dew/ping/Nep...

How many areoles is S. alata 'areolata' supposed to have? Mine seems to have the hood looking like S. leucophylla but it is obviously S. alata (and the flower also S. alata).

My daughter wants a terrarium. Forutnately for me I have been lucky enough to inhearate a small tank that was used for exactly that purpose. Lucky me!... or maybe not... seems it will need a new hood... okay... I can do this.. all the information I need is right here at my fingertips (mouse...

I was asked what I went to prison for and since I dont wanna hijack the thread and I have nothing to hide Ill explain it here. I got busted for burglary in 1997, I cant remember what degree (dont make me dig the papers out!) but it was to a business that was closed at the time. Its a major...

Well I have to say all my plants have/are flowering or are sending up pitchers, leaves, etc. The bogs are doing wonderful. I will jsut name off a few interesting things otherwise I would have a small book. My unknown sarr looks similar to my S. oreo x. leuco but seems to have minor in it. I am...

I just recieved 4 new Neps today: N. rafflesiana (from PFT) N. ventricosa (from PFT) N. bicalcarata (from Black Jungle) N. ampullaria (from Black Jungle) The first three are small plants in 3" round pots; the N. ampullaria is a more established plant. They were outside, and quite hot when I...

I have a 42 watt, cool white fluorescent bulb on it's way to me from a site that I ordered it from. Problem is, I only have a desklamp to use and the bulb is so big it's going to stick at least halfway out of the lamp. I have to put this in my bedroom and don't want to blind me or my wife...
