I got this one unlabeled last year at Lowes or HD. I grew it indoors over the winter under moderate LED lighting, and acclimated it to partial sun for the summer. A big plant as mine go, over 2'. Fragrance is like chocolate, in a bubble gum sort of way.

Hello, Im trying to figure out the layout for a LED grow light Im going to build for a 10 gallon terrarium; so far, Ive read quite a bit of conflicting opinions on the matter. I think Im set on including both colored and white LEDs; Ive drafted a possible layout, Im just not sure whether to...

I have a 'reptile room' in my house, where temps are a bit more consistent than the rest of the house. And during the winter, warmer, lol. I nap in there when I let the rest of the house get cold. Last winter was ridiculous - power bills climbed up past what my monthly mortgage payment is...

Hello! I've always been an orchid aficionado, and started growing them in earnest up here in NYC about 8 months ago. The Orchid Board led me here, and I've been buying CPs over the past month or so. Of course I had my odd Venus Flytrap sold in a little plastic box when I was a kid, but like...

I bought a few N. villosa seedlings from a vendor at our 2013 Annual NECPS Show last year. I have them growing in live LFS with temperatures around 50F at night under T5 and LED lights. All of the yellow N. villosa seedlings are pictured below were labeled to be from Mt. Kinabalu...

Something I'm been wanting to do for years and with the current state of LED lighting I think it might now be possible. I'm looking to grow a small colony of Brocchinia reducta indoors under LED lighting, I've never grown this plant before but have experience with hundreds of species of...

I have set myself a line in the sand....only 1 10 gallon terrarium allowed inside....course no rules for the gh. :) Anyway, I wanted it to be cheap and efficient. I did have some humidity issues at first but found a natural solution.....building a bed of living LFS and it works...
