    When to Harden Off Seedlings?

    When is the accepted age/size to harden off seedlings? I have a few Nepenthes seedlings that are over an inch and about a year old (some 8 months old, still an inch) and I'm worried that the high humidity and standing water in the terrarium combined with the crud growing in there will give them...

    Do I need to repot?

    The crowns of the d. capensis narrow leaf plants look high. I remove dead leaves. Do I need to repot these to bring the crowns closer to the potting medium? <a href="http://s3.photobucket.com/user/sharpchick/media/Garden/122513dcapensisnarrowleaf.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img...

    My Brocchinia reducta is growing again!

    After a long period of non-growth due to shock, my Brocchinia reducta is starting to grow again, my lovely plant loves the sun so I had it in my mother's bedroom in a west facing window and watered the urn, fed it a couple of bugs a month, the plant was growing beautifully, vigorous and quite...

    Recut This Cutting?

    I received this N. Miranda cutting during the summer and it has made slow but steady progress since I potted it in living sphagnum upon arrival. I realize now, with this being my first cutting, that I should have cut it down to a few nodes instead of leaving it full length. Since it is making...

    Seedling Repotting... When?

    My attenboroughii is over an inch now and my vent x max x talang seedlings are growing like weeds. They're in the terrarium now, but their soil is starting to break down (algae/ bacteria) so I want to repot each into a final pot... Kinda inconvienient since winter is a terrible time to harden...

    ID/Repotting?

    It was love at first sight. I couldn't help myself. And for only $10 :) Does anyone suspect an ID on this beauty? Also, It seems to be potted in a simple peat and pearlite mix. Should I repot it or let it be? Any advice is greatly appreciated! [/URL][/IMG]

    Indian Frankincense: Boswellia serrata

    The tags on these 4 " short pots say that the seeds for these two Boswellia serrata plants were sown back on February 21, 2007. This plant has a couple of braches poking up from beneath the soil's surface and another starting out atop of this plant's caudal-like base. The other plant also...

    If anyone is interested in trying out this stuff, i'd be open to trades for gallon bags. Looking for helis or utrics(anything but the super common ones), or uncommon pings or sundews.. or nifty Sarracenia that I don't already have.. Just make me an offer. 1 gallon bag will fit per standard 6 x 6...

    Just look at what a repot can do.

    I acquired these little chaps a few years ago. They flowered for a couple of years then 'disappeared'. Some weeds came up but as I pulled the first one I noticed a small tuber on the end (ooooops).Left to their own devices they continued to send up the weed type growth. This spring I decided to...

    One single lonely flower...

    So I was going to repot my N. Viking X ampullaria because it is crammed in a small two inch pot when I noticed it was sending out its first flower stalk!... or not. This "flower stalk" turned out to be only a single lone flower? Has anyone else ever seen this?

    Mealys or something else?

    I guess I should have expected it sooner or later, but I think I have a problem. I have these white patches on my S. leucophylla. I'm thinking they might be mealys, but I'm honestly not sure. I don't see any around the rhizome, and these spots aren't like anything I've seen online. These spots...

    Trichoderma and Sarracenia

    This growing season was going good for me until I started to lose several mature divisions to rhizome rot. The previous years I've lost a few divisions due to media getting too compacted over time. This year I decided to go with an airy mix with a higher perlite to peat ratio. I use the...

    Repotting cephalotus?

    I just received a young adult cephalotus planted in pure LFS in a small pot. Should I go ahead and repot it in a sand/peat/perlite mix in a larger pot, or should I wait? The soil it's in seems kind of old and compacted and the pot's tiny.

    Nepenthes living but not making much progress

    I have 4 Nepenthes that I started outside in the shade over the summer. I have slowly moved them to a bit more sun. They are about 3 months old now. Only one is slowly adding new growth. Someone on another forum advised me to repot them in pure long-stem spagnum moss. Right now they are in...

    UnstuckinTime's 1st Attempt at a Grow Shelf

    Hey Everyone! It's been a very long time since I posted, or even viewed, anything on this forum. Truth be told, I put this hobby of mine on the back burner as I made the push to finish my undergrad degree, and apply for graduate school. Then I got lazy, figuring I shouldn't upgrade, or get...

    Serial Killing slugs

    Recently, my VFT and sundew died with an unknown culprit. I noticed in the past week that my Butterwort and one pot of my Pitcher Plant seedlings have began to decline. I decided today would repot the butterwort! I discovered strange slug like things on the roots and in the leaves. They are...

    Jamban Cutting Rooted... Now What? o_o

    I checked my N. jamban cutting/basal thingy and it had a 1/2cm root exactly a week ago. I haven't checked it again because I don't want the new roots to break if I pull it out of its medium too hard. When can I unbag it? And do I have to acclimate it to lower humidity? Do I need to repot it or...

    Repotting mexican pings

    I have some P. gigantea growing indoors by my windowsill that I'd like to repot. Two of them are growing fine and have already overgrown their 3.5" pots. The third one seems to be struggling with almost no root structure. I'm guessing it's because of my media mix which consists mostly of perlite...

    Need Heliamphora Care Tips

    Yes, indeed, the one with the uncreative name has returned, with yet more questions. (I have sooooo many questions. :p) Okay, I'm planning on ordering a Heliamphora minor. I do know that these plants are more difficult that plants like Venus flytraps or Drosera capensis. I have a setup waiting...

    Pretty Excited

    I just received a H. Minor and H. Nutans this morning :-D I'm pretty happy with how they look. H. Minor H. Nutans I was able to repot the Nutans but the Minor is going to have to wait a little since the pot I ordered arrived broken. This is my setup so far. I'm keeping them partially...
