    Made a mistake repotting with Plastering sand- need help

    So I repotted my plants two days ago. Around 20 plants. Instead of using peat/perlite mix for the sarrs, drosera, and vfts I went with peat/sand mix. Apparently I bought the wrong kind of sand because I used "Western States Wholesale washed plastering sand". I did 3:1 ratio peat/sand for the...

    Nepenthes Death Cube Rescue!

    So I walked into lowes today, and as usual looked at the plants. They had the usual many almost dead VFTs, but in the back of the $10 row, of course not the $5 row, I saw this little Nep screaming to save him or he'd eat me in the next life. First photo is in the box, second is it re-potted into...

    Venus flytrap form lowes

    I just got this guy form Lowes. It was the only one of this form, the others were dentaes. The traps are around 1 inch long. It came from a place called Altman plants and I have already looked at their website it doesn't help much. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Honzo's Texas Mini-Bog(s)

    Howdy, y'all! Starting a series of pots in the front yard. These will be fully exposed to the harsh Texas sun and relatively low humidity (generally around 30%-40%). My main purpose for this thread is to hopefully clear up any doubts that these plants can be grown in harsh conditions such as...

    Does Flowing Water Benefit Plants Significantly?

    Hey guys, sorry I've been away for so long. Hope to be more active again soon. :/ I'm setting up a second terrarium (knew it was going to happen eventually), as I started to re-pot some of my seedlings a couple days ago and realized I was going to end up with WAY more pots than I could handle...

    False Vivipary VFT

    Thought I'd share. I got this from Lowe's over the winter on sale and stuck it in a terrarium until I could get it in the bog. I saw this today. I know I've heard of this happening before, I was wondering how uncommon it is though? And if anyone has any experience with separating the traps...

    Dormancy or not?

    So I bought a Venus Flytrap from Lowe's, and being early March, should I put it on a dark windowsill or let it grow? It's very alive looking so wasn't sure weather to put it into dormancy or not. ???

    Anybody else have really bad local CP nurseries?

    I always see people getting really cool plants from their local nurseries such as Lowes, Home Depot, and etc. WELL, the ones around my house have NONE OF THAT. THE ONLY plant they'll ever carry is generic venus flytrap. I can drive a couple of hours up north to an awesome CP holy land but...

    Sarracenia Deathcube rescue!

    I bought a Deathcube from Lowes last night as I havent owned any Sarrs yet, and it ended up being 2 individual Sarracenia plants when I repotted them. I planted them with my VFT to make a tiny "community" of carnivores! Look how bright green they are! They mustve been deprived of light for a...

    Planning Cobras' Doom

    A while back on another forum I read a thread about a person "doing everything wrong with Darlingtonia." Essentially, he obtained a death cube cobra from Lowe's, and, not knowing what to do with it, placed it in a sealed glass jar terrarium in Miracle Grow potting mix. He watered by spraying tap...

    APS with Zeolite ok?

    I have been meaning to try APS as a medium for my MexiPings for a long time. Oddly enough, the local Lowe's, Home Depot, etc don't carry it. A lot of the APS I am finding online has zeolite mixed in it. Is this an issue?
