I've seen this idea batted around a few times but I've never been able to find one someone actually built. There are a few fridge terrariums out there but I can not seem to find a wine chiller one. While I was at Lowes today I noticed they had an off brand small chiller with there Black Friday...

I have mentioned in other threads how hard silica sand is to find in my area: none at Lowe's nor the gravel yard even. I have found pool filter sand at a few pool supply places, but all but one only sell the ultra-fine grade sugary-looking stuff. As I continue my search for usable silica sand...

I found a bunch of these on the clearance rack at Lowe's. I was thinking these would make nice little terrariums or germination chambers. Any other ideas? I got 7 of them.

October 31st November 12th So while I was at Lowes a few months back, I noticed some Deathcubes on sale. 50% off. And I'm a sucker for hard luck cases. :) These were the "have some peat, have some plants in ziplock bags that are 'dormant', good luck" type that starting appearing in stores...

So I have a small collection of plants, some doing well, others not so well. Lately I've gotten the bug to upgrade my growing conditions and I'm thinking about upgrading my old wireframe Lowes rack into a terrarium, or adding a terrarium to my collection as I can. My plan is to source things...

Since I grow mostly Sarracenia there isn't much going on at my house plant-wise. I do, however, have some orchids that are keeping me inspired. I figured someone here might enjoy it, too. This is a Brassocattleya hybrid called Kosh Wallis. Not a bad looking plant considering I bought it from...

I have decided I want to uniformly organize my Sarracenia collection since it is getting quite large and unruly in regards to pot uniformity. I feel like the growing process would be easier with either four-inch or five-inch square pots in large community trays; right now my plants are in...

Just finished the 6X8 HF greenhouse today! Rightside is reserved just for my carnivorous plants and the left is mostly orchids and tropicals! I bumped up the height of the greenhouse by making it's base out of 12" boards and dug it into the ground about a foot as well. Laid out some insulation...

I'm used to all sorts of misc ferns popping up unannounced and uninvited in my terrs, but what ever this plant is, I haven't seen it before. Media is pure sphag (out of a bag from Lowes). The media has been in this terr for 2 or 3 years now so whatever it is has sure taken its sweet time...

I guess I should have expected it sooner or later, but I think I have a problem. I have these white patches on my S. leucophylla. I'm thinking they might be mealys, but I'm honestly not sure. I don't see any around the rhizome, and these spots aren't like anything I've seen online. These spots...

hello guys i got some sand from lowes and its called greensmix all purpose sand... http://images.lowes.com/product/converted/082567/082567100010lg.jpg will it work? and BRIE i know you tried the sand and it would help me if you can tell me PLEASE :-(

While my family was out at Lowes today they noticed some odd plants and bought them for me. I ended up with a Argyroderma spp and Fenestraria aurantiaca according to the labels. I was hoping you guys could tell me a little more about them. I have some Lithops spp and was planning to make a bowl...

Hey guys I bought a "dormant" baby sarr from lowes in April in the bug biting plants starter kit. It didnt say what species if Sarr it is though. It's finally putting up some pitchers and I'm thinking it may be some form of S. Rubra but I'm not sure. I know these pics aren't the best but I'd...

I'm not the best photographer, but I try. I don't have the best collection, but it's growing (hehe). I find pictures are a great way to see progress in slow-going things like plants and aquariums. So without adieu, here are my first plants! A death cube from Lowes, a flytap from a local...

Some more 100 degree pics from today My new 10'x30' structure, I haven't built the tables yet, so just hanging plants for now My seriously overgrown and neglected old shade house, 9'x24' and everything in there needs to be repotted My poor abused Nepenthes from Lowes, had it...

I've had these CPs for probably 2 years or so now (maybe more). Soil mix, watering methods, etc are all the same. All plants were Lowe's deathcubes purchased the same time.... So why oh why are these lil VETs still so little? And any way to help them get some size? They did start to...

Howdy. Where can I buy just the plain Death Cube that you see at Lowes or Home Depot. I don't want the plant or soil, just the container.

Hey I just wanted to say thanks to u guys for all of your very useful info on this site. I recently got into the whole carnivorous plants thing and I love it. I currently have 2 sundews a VFT that I got from lowes that's doing well. I just bought 2 VFTs from lowes that were definitely on the...

Well, My name is Dave and I am addicted to fish. I have 18 fish tanks and that is too many. Since I have way too many fish tanks, I figured I had better get started with Carnivorous plants. I was at Lowes and was tempted by the Bug Biting plants dormant Pitcher plant and Venus Flytrap. I mixed...
