    My decent into madness begins...

    Truly depressing. Just checked my pygmie dews. Scorpioides, occidentalis and nitidula are producing gemmae already. Looks like I'll be harvesting gemmae for another five or six months. Seems like I just finished harvesting the last bunch the other day. Think I'll sit in the corner and pout...

    looking for U. graminifolia and pygmies

    As the title states I have been looking for U. graminifolia for some time now since my old culture died. I'm hoping that its pygmy drosera gemmae time as well, but if not I'd like to trade for U. graminifolia. Look on my growlist and if none of my plants interest you I do have aquatic plants if...

    Pygmy newbie and a few questions

    Hi, I am not very familiar with Pygmies but they seem to do well for me under lights. They are currently in peat/sand mix as well as LFS. My questions are: 1. Anyone uses LFS with good results? I have another friend whose pygmies are growing in LFS so I tried when I got some D. pygmae seeds. 2...

    Speaking of flowers

    I took this picture to show my family via email and thought I might share it here as well. The dime was there to help them understand the size of these tiny pygmies. D. nitidula x puchella So small, so simple, so beautiful. xvart.

    Pygmies under flourescent light - how to produce gemmae?

    I've been growing the following plants under T5s. They flowered for me and I thought perhaps soon, I could try and stimulate gemmae production. D. puchella D. occidentalis x puchella D. ericksoniae x puchella They are now receiving 12 hours of artificial light and are growing normally as they...

    Some CP photos

    H. neblinae (I think- that's what I bought it as. If anyone thinks otherwise, please let me know) Adding a new light and extending the photoperiod has made my D ordensis grow better I pictured my D stolonifera in flower a few weeks ago. Its grown somewhat since then. I think this is D...

    gemmae

    How long are gemmae good for? My pygmies are starting to put off more and more. I want to wait until they are done then use the gemmae to fill in the thin spots on the pot and the maybe put some outside to see what happens.

    Worms?  Problem!

    I think there may have been a thread about this somewhere-- I have many Pygmy pots with something living in the soil that makes little heaps of peat on top of the soil surface. It seems like what earthworms do. It is really a problem in the Pygmy pots because it's ugly and the piles can cover up...

    pygme Drosera

    The only pygmies I've grown to this point are scorpioides. I've had no trouble with them, but from what I hear, they are these easiest (no dormancy required). I was gifted a small pot of a pygme hybrid (don't remember the parrents, and there was no label....puchella x something maybe? I know I...

    Anyone's pygmies producing?

    I can not even recall if pygmies are even gearing up this time of year but figured I'd check around. Not looking for any specific species. PM me if you can help Tahnks
