    D. nidiformis's susceptablity to fungi

    I've been doing some research on D. nidiformis, since I'll be gaining some seeds of the species from CPlantaholic's major seed giveaway, (Thanks a whole lot!), and I found that some websites say that the plant is quite susceptable to a fungus that makes it lose its dew and turns its leaves red...

    P. moranensis getting munched on?

    I have a weird thing going on with my moranensis. I repotted it recently and now, all the old leaves are vanishing. I'm not talking shriveling up, I'm talking big circular holes appearing in them and spreading out. It almost looks like they're melting. It really looks like something is...

    How much air circulation is too much?

    I've been having MAJOR problems with algae, fungus, mold, etc in my little grow rack and it has been suggested several times that it could be due to poor air flow. I have a humidifier in the rack itself and had hoped that the movement from that would be enough air circulation, but alas, I still...
