Thank you
Saturday I went home to take care of my plants like I do each week. I came home to several disasters that are mentioned in the proper forums. Anyhow, my VFT disaster is that my flowering plant.... well, the stalk was up to 2 inches and some how rotted at the tip and had a horrible fungi all...
Aside from CP's and tropical fish I am into gardening. I enjoy growing the usual crocus, gladioli, iris, tulip, daffodil... but I have horrible luck / skill with daffodils and to a lesser extent, bearded iris. Typically, I will buy a package of bulbs / rhyzomes and plant them according to...
On Monday my wife had told me that she would not be home and that I would have to walk our dog Apple. No problem, its not hard to walk a dog.
A little background...
My wife had wanted a dog for some time. I had grown away from liking dogs as they just seemed to be dirty, loud, messy, etc. I...
Ok, I just got finished digging my pond, and I need help on the design aspects of my bog.
First, I am going to have an in ground pond in the center, with my bog completly encircling it.
Is it possible to feed my bog with my pond, being that my pond is ground level?
I live in New Orleans, any...
Hi LOTR fans,
Back when the ROTK hit theaters there was some discussion about how the film makers produced the high pitched scream made by the black riders.
Watch the producer-director commentary on the "Fellowship" special edition and hear it straight from the screamer: it was none other than...
ANY AND ALL ADVICE APRESHIATED! (this has been spell checked)
...I SUCK... All my plants look like they are on the brink of death and I don't know what to do. Please move to location of specialty for areas you may be able to help in. Thanks. (or just enjoy the general feeling of doom in the...
Does anyone have any common cp to trade? I have a person here who would like some, and I don't have extras of the easily grown species. I am not sure what I have to trade off the top of my head, but I was thinking of your typical D. spatulata,aliciae, capensis -type Drosera, a Mexican ping or...
So if your up with whats going on around the Houston area, your aware of the tremendous amount of rain today. Turns out so many, that my terrarium looked more like an aquarium with all my plants submerrged under for like 7/8 inches. WORST of all, i thought the squirrels had did a number on my...
I have a 55 gallon terrarium that was constructed about a month ago, a third of it is submerged in half inch of distilled water. The distilled water is getting murky and leaving a foul odor, it smells horrible, there isn't a draining system anywhere, cause its basically a 55 gallon aquarium...

This morning I woke up and dragged myself down to my windowsill.Something horrible met my eye in one of my VFT's traps - a fly that looked like a mini DLL (Daddy Long Legs) had it's head poking out of a trap. IT WAS STILL ALIVE It was horrible - It was struggling and trying to get out! After...
While shopping at Home Depot in the garden secion (to get mom a plant for Mother's day), I came across this horrible sight!
WEAK Venus Fly Trap!
Is there any advice anyone can give? This poor thing was terribly mistreated! It was covered in its own soil, and I had to remove some to uncover...
Yet again I have fallen into the "Lowes trap" and rescued 6 neps that were badly in need of a good home. Unlike the usual "dead plants in a cube" that they usually have this time they had large neps in 10 inch hanging pots. All were simply marked "Hybrid Pitcher Plants" (I won't get into the...
When I checked on all my cps this morning, I looked inside the newest pitcher on my purpurea, which is almost all the way open, but still new and tender, and guess what I saw! <span style='color:red'>A HOLE!!!</span> The hole is about a half of an inch from the bottom of the pitcher and is about...
Hi!
I read somewhere how to feed your Utrics by putting a jar full of straw full of rainwater away for about 3 weeks. After 1 week the smell was reasonable okay... But right now, three weeks further the smell is horrible. I don't dare to give it to my plants. Someone got experience with this...

After reading nearly every post in the Nepenthes forum of...
Hi all
Tonite there was a shooting here just a few hours ago. It may be another one of the sniper shootings. Numerous roads, highways and interstates were shut down within ten minutes after it was reported. It is a mess here...police are swarming everywhere. They are taking no chances. The...
