    LEDs for Helis

    Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone grows heliamphora under LEDs and how they color up. I read on the icps website that LEDs may not be the best choice for helis, I also read that plants like the deep red lights. I was thinking about doing an LED set up because you can put them on a panel of...

    Aeroponic cloner for Nepenthes cuttings?

    Has anyone tried using one of the commercially available cloners for Nepenthes cuttings? The ICPS website mentions aeroponic propagation, and has a couple of pictures of it, but doesn't go into any detail. The cloners are relatively inexpensive now, so I'm thinking it'll be fun to try. If...

    First Byblis Seedlings

    So I sowed some seed from ICPS and after about a month I now have around 15 Byblis liniflora seedlings with a few more to come I'm sure. I've never grown Byblis before so am looking for some pretty basic advice, although I've done plenty of reading already. A few questions: 1) Some of them...

    Reintroductions/Restorations on East Coast

    Hey there, I was wondering if anyone knew of attempts to reintroduce native carnivores or restore similar communities in the Northeast, or more broadly, of active conservation efforts in the region. I know of the Pine Barrens, but that's as far as I've gotten. I've joined ICPS, Meadowview and...

    Growing U. mannii

    While this species is now available in Europe, there still aren't that many people growing it. I thought it would be a good idea to start this thread to pool whatever info we have & hopefully make it easier for all growers to be successful. Observations - (would be nice if someone who has...
