I've been experimenting with growing Nepenthes hydroponically since March 2015, so for about a year and a half now. I'd like to share my results in this thread, and then give some details about my method. Thanks to TF member knuckles for sharing with me his experiences growing Nepenthes...

Hi. I'm looking to trade some nepenthes plants for some lowland or intermediate/lowland nepenthes plants.
What I have to offer:

N. Spathulata x Campanulata 7 inch leaf span with 2 pitchers
N. Spathulata x Diatas 8 inch leaf span with...
Hiya!
I've got a quite small N. Rajah x Mira growing in my chamber, struggling for now and I was wondering if anyone have pictures of a big(ger) one with pitchers? I can't seem to get anything satisfying from google.
Also, does anyone have any other Rajah hybrids? I think i can recall a N...

I'd like to say a "BIG HELLO" from Texas!
I just started growing nepenthes about 3 years ago. I've been hooked ever since!
I grow mainly tropical plants i.e. plumeria, hoya, orchids, alocasia, colocasia , anthuriums, bananas, tropical ginger, and nepenthes.
I look forward to meeting some of you...

Hi, Haven't been on here in forever, but I wanted to let you know I have pollen available from my N. sibuyanensis x merrilliana. If you have a female in bloom I'll go ahead and send the pollen out, split the resulting seed 50/50. It might be best to email me. sam.bookhardt@gmail.com but I'll...
A couple weeks ago I set up a large (2.5ft wide x 5ft long x 7.5ft tall) grow tent in my apartment for lowland Nepenthes and picked up my exotica plants preorder (~20 plants) from a local nursery here in the northeast. I use an 8-tub, 4ft. long T5 HO fixture, and my light levels and temperature...
My (ventricosa x sibuyanensis) x merrilliana is currently in bloom. The first flowers should be opening any day now. Please let me know if you have any eligible bachelors in bloom. This plant makes some enormous, tubby pitchers so expect any hybrids to be large and in charge! Pics below.

Mystery N. merrilliana hybrids (sold as N.'Hopeful Monsters' by a certain Nepenthes nursery in Hawaii) have been around for several years now. I am a huge fan of N. merrilliana crosses, so if anyone has pics, I would be very curious to see how they are turning out!
From talking with the nursery...
Natural light levels
March 2014
Bright light all day without direct sunlight on plants.
All of my Neps are in natural light so I took readings using a light meter. The first reading was taken at 10am and by 4pm, the light level has gone up by at least 2000 lux at the shadiest spot and at the...
My little guy is finally settled in enough to make it's first pitcher for me, and I wanted to share. I was talking to some professionals, and they seemed to think that this hybrid is destined to be lack-luster. Sure, it's parent, 'Caesar' was enormous in the pitcher department, but was...
I've been looking for N. bokorensis for a while now, but I have not seen any available at the usual places I get Nepenthes from. PM me if you are interested in any of the plant I have available for trade.
Plants Available for Trade:
N. x 'Caesarion' - (veitchii x (merrilliana x truncata)

A local Nepenthes grower offered to help me build a lowland tank for my apartment. This was something I had planned on doing for a while, but until now I didn't have access to the tools I would need. I want to use the tank to grow several very large lowland Nepenthes, particularly N. merrilliana...
If you love Nepenthes as much as I do...
....the following may be hard to see.
So this summer was hot, and I lived in a place without AC. Needless to say, my highland Nepenthes were not happy with that. But then I moved, and also upgraded from a fishtank with lights set up to a...
I just got some greenhouse space at work, so I've started to grow Nepenthes again after taking a break for the better part of the decade. A nursery I've gotten plants from before is offering two crosses I'm interested in growing, N. truncata x merrilliana "Caesar", and N. "thorellii" x (truncata...
