The North Carolina chapter of The Nature Conservancy is doing a project to catalog the VFT's in the Green Swamp. They are raising funds to do this. I believe that its vital to the survival of VFT's. Please donate to this very worthy project...

First, this morning I went to do a misting of my various nepenthes seeds, and was happy to see both raf and amp seedling after about 3 weeks now! I have plenty more varieties I'm waiting on, but it was great to know I'm doing something right. Thanks everyone for the hundred questions I've had...

so, i have had a bit of an interest in reefkeeping for quite a while now. i dont actually have my own tank, but i think about it all the time, and look at corals, clams, fis, etc. my brother is the one who originally got me interested in it, as he has a 40 gal soft coral tank (which i am...

Well, as the seasons begin to change, I am noticing that the window I moved my Miranda into isn't getting as much light as it did when I moved him there. And as such I have noticed a big slow down in growth on the plant that didn't flower( the one that did it blocking some extra light from the...

So this morning my ballast blew in my main grow light. I have been contemplating the newer LED lights based on their longer lifespan. Does anyone use these? and if so have any opinions and or pics on how well they work if at all? Im going to try and check all local hardware stores when i get out...

I just uploaded over a hundred photos of my collection from the last couple years to my facebook page. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think. It should be visible to everyone here: www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151037308982245.424477.501627244&type=3 I seem to have a knack...

Has anybody used a 100w led chip or 3w led chips instead of fluorescent tubes before? I ordered some on ebay fo my terrarium and am waiting for them to arrive.

Hi everybody! I have a P. moctezumae that I purchased online (along with a P. moranensis) that is not doing well. The P. moranensis is doing okay, (although it is not thriving by any means) but the moctezumae is actively dying. It arrived with three one inch long skinny leaves. The one leaf...

Hi all today i had the time to take some pictures from my test setup for LED in my Basement. I grow the plants under a 90W UFO Light fromt he newest generation. The plants seem to like it. i even started to use LED rope in my lab

Recent events have led me to believe that the original plant labeled D. filiformis 'Florida Giant' that I received from a local nursery a few years ago was mislabeled by that nursery. The plants you received from me are all from seed of that original plant and its offspring as I have never had...

I get an email catalog from an electronics surplus and they have this for sale http://www.goldmine-elec-products.com/prodinfo.asp?number=G18748 do you think it'd be any good for plants??

I am in the process of planning a new grow rack, and I don't want to use lights that draw a lot of power. I have done a little research into LEDs, originally for my reef tank, but now I have started to wonder if LEDs could be used for growing CPs? Knowing that 5000K to 5500K is a good range for...

Hey guys, I posted this on a canadian reef forum and figured I should ask here as well. Anyone have experience with these fixtures? are they safe?? thanks guys V

This morning I was doing my usual routine of Facebook, Email, and CP forums. And then all of a sudden I got a message from Google, I think, stating that it detected an error with my cookies, with a few suggestions and links to rectify the situation. But none of the links led to fixing anything...

Oh dear lord.. it's a LOT bigger than I remember. Need to find a better spot for it, kind of an eye sore at the moment. But weighing in at 700Lbs.. I'm not in a big hurry to try and move it again. :rolleyes: I see there's the same model on eBay for $850. So the $30 I payed is sitting fine by me...
