    Thag's pics of flytraps

    Here are some of my flytraps this year. They're comming up nicely. This is a Big Mouth. When I got it it was teeny tiny and I didn't think it would make it. Here's what it looked like when I got it. Two of the leaves died and I thought it was over. So I'm happy to see it making this...

    Repotting time I suppose

    I got a few Sarracenias last year for my little tray garden. They did well then of course didn't look so good in winter. I'm not exactly sure what to do now. I know some need to be repotted. The big one in the back with the brown parts is a rubra gulfensis and it's got grass growing out of...

    First Flowering Nepenthes!

    So it might only be a Ventrata, but the small plant I got from Lowe's about a year and a half ago is now a sizable plant and I woke up this morning to see that a flower is forming above the newest leaf that opened! I'll post pictures later, and possible see if anyone can tell if it is male or...

    Do I Need Circulation for My Nepenthes Seed?

    So last night I received 6 types of Nepenthes seed I had ordered off ebay in the mail. After running by lowes and getting a 3 packs of the covered seedling trays, I got everything sowed. I used scissors to shred up 100% dried LFS, boiled it to sterilize it, and then filled 6 sets of cells and...

    Tray for Nep Seeds

    schultz aquatic plant soil as aggregate?

    I think I have this at a local lowes. To my understanding its nutrient free and neutral in pH so I thought i might use it instead of sand or perilte which is unavailable. The trouble is, is that this medium is designed to absorb and release nutrients. Will it harm my plants? Can i use it on...

    Can I water/humidity proog a fluorescent light fixture?

    So after about a week of running my grow rack with it zipped up and high humidity, one of the light fixtures has been having trouble coming on in the morning, which I think might be due to the water corroding it or something related. I just use 2 2-bulb, 2-foot fluorescent fixtures from Lowe's...

    Recycle those plastics for CP use.

    I'll start with the most obvious.. empty milk jugs for RO water. Beanie Baby cubes & Lowe's death cubes. All drilled out and ready for use. They make great clear pots for cephs and regia, which have really long roots. Also going to be converting my tuberous dew collection to these pots...

    3 Years of N. Ventricosa - Big Pics

    I occasionally take pictures around my greenhouse, but rarely do anything with them. I was looking through several years of these pictures, and noticed that I had happened to photograph the same plant on almost the same day for 3 years. It's a plain-old N. ventricosa "Red" that you can find...
