Sigh, here I go on another expensive crazy project. I'm starting a small tissue culture lab. The goal of this project is to breed orchids and maybe some other plants, experiment with different procedures, and produce plants to trade/sell. Eventually if things go well I will turn it into a...
I recently aquired some plants from another grower here in NC and before taking the plants today I informed him that I did not have the space to grow all these plants at the size they are now and he told me it would be fine for me to share these plants with anybody I wanted. So basically I'm...
I have 6 ready to thrive. I changed up the soil mix and increased the perlite/reduced the peat so hopefully will look less enticing to pests. I have a very nice looking coccinae, not 1 but 2 grabilis hybrids :). one is a purple gracilis/mirabilis and the other is a gracilis/winged...
I have the following neps for trade:
alata x maxima
x emmarene
x khaslessi
x effalgent koto
Far as I can tell these are all intermediates...will have pic and measurement soon but they are all rooted cutting if memory serves. I am looking for either lowland nepenthes or some nice/beautiful...
Okay guys, I have had plenty of neps with basals. I have cut them, traded them, rooted them etc. but I never wondered how they formed. Well a few weeks ago I was having an issue with a N. mirabilis and decided to unpot it to check the roots. I counted five small green sprouts (for lack of a...
me and this guy have been locked into battle since I first potted it. Very fickle plant indeed but it seems to be coming around to my way of seeing things....not sure if it is finished making this pitcher or not but so far it is nice. didn't expect the lid to be speckled or have hairs on it so...
Hello!
I would like to share with you my humble collection of CPs :) all my plants are basicly new in my collection (just started) and they are accomodating. Criticism is welcome :) tell me what to improve.
Yesterday I was fighting with fungus in terra, hope it will be ok now.

For the last two months my N. mirabilis has been growing well and pitchering every tendril it can stick into something moist; water, another pot, moss. The older leaves have always had a tinge of red to them. Today I went downstairs to my grow rack and found the stem collapsed and a good half...
well actually the third but the other 2 were very small but increased geometrically in size so I'm guessing the next one will be larger considering the leaf it is attached to is the largest one yet as well. Can't see in the pic but it does have the fang articulation....I suspect my first...
I bought this mirabilis var echinostoma and in addition to different conditions I transplant shocked it due to repotting it after 10 days due to thrips......It has been nearly a month since then and while it isn't declining; it isn't growing either. I think maybe it has added 1/10 of an inch to...

pretty self explanatory....everything I read was kind of general and said they like the 90's.
Is that low 90's, mid 90's or high 90's?
I have a bical and a raff and they seem to really like it around 92-94; however i received a mirabilis var ech. that was in a cooler terrarium that seems to...
