repot

Earlier this year when I was living in Mississippi I posted about my pitcher plants not thriving like they should have been, and eventually I figured out the cause... It was because the soil I used had waaaaaaay to much LFS in it (I think I used LFS, peat, and sand in a 1:1:1 ratio), and over...

Decided it was time to repot a large x Red Leopard that was overwhelming the chili pepper plant it was growing up. It also needed to be moved because of low light levels on that side of the house this time of year. When I removed its pot (which was inside a much larger pot containing the chili...

Ok so my N. Tentaculata hasnt pitchered for a few months and now it has finally started pitchering. Unfortunetly, it's making these weird deformed pitchers. When I bought it, it did have a pitcher like this. I have proper HL conditions except for humidity. Humidity is about 50-60% so that might...

Hi Everyone, I wanted to get some opinions on what I should do with this guy. I recieved this nepenthes from someone and it was on the brink of death. Seems like it was due to very hot and humid conditions with no airflow. I also suspect the soil might not have been the best either. I did...

Lately it seems like many of my nepenthes are in a funk. Some continue to grow leaves but have stopped pitchering while others have slowed down all around. Quite a few have spouted basals in the past few months so that might explain some of it. I moved to Texas at the beginning of September...

got this from a member here,a few years back. it has re awoke , doing ok but just ok think i need a dryer location for most of my pings. and they all need a repot. . .

My tap water is around 100PPM here(according to my PPM meter, not the most accurate one I bet), so I have been using it on my drosera and nepenthes for about 8 months. Nepenthes grow like mad, so there isn't a question with them. However, I have noticed recently my drosera are growing slower...

After unpotting the red dragon dew I got form the store here in the spring I found this. :-O do I owe adnedarn more money ?:blush: Is a good one?:0o:. . Should I fridge it with the VFT's , so I dont disturb it again?. . Ive already uprooted it, though the roots are all in the clump of...

I bought a N. lowii x spectabilis in June and it has been growing well, however the sphagnum topping on the top continues drying out and even though I have been trying to keep it wet, it is turning white. Like it has been wet for the past like two weeks, but because it dried out one day (a few...

I got this today for very cheap. I am not to sure how health it is. I trimed a lot of the dead leaves off and it looks better now. I am going to repot if nessecary. It is two D. Capensis's in one pot. I have it in a warm room with a full sun window at 60% humidity standing in some RO water...

I used a peaty mix to start but when i actually repot i will move to orchid bark/perlite mix. I am not crazy about repotting and neither are the nepenthes. I generally don't give them much daily water(10cc or so)....basically what they need to keep the soil damp; however with the slow moving...

N. ventricosa x talangensis (this was a while ago, just to give you an idea of height... Maybe abour 14" tall?) I feel like it is being constricted at the roots. So I got this in December 2011 and it grew really well, has probably put out 10-15 leaves since then, all the same size, about 7"...

I heard someone say a good rule of thumb is when the leaves all start to reach the edges of the pot....this raffesaina and bical are both in 6 inch pots......can you guys give me your opinion about whether it is time to repot or an approximation about when is a good time...i know it is soon.

Finally decided to bite the bullet and repot my big old N. villosa! Its been in its old compost too long and also got jammed in its home in the greenhouse. I should have done it a few years back as the leaves are looking more stressed than I like and pitchering as been few and far between these...

hello every one im new on this forum, i was wondering if its too late to repot my cp plants, since they have a bad infestation of springtails.:blush:

Up for trade is a burbeddie. I feel that I cannot take care of it and I have a feeling that it will only slowly decline if it remains in my care. I bought this at an orchid shop and had no idea what I was doing at the time and I now regret my mistake. I think the plant is growing in peat/perite...

i have several neps that have been in thier pots for more than two years and some more than that , most of these are in very small pots, 3" in most cases, and a couple of them have over grown the pots by several inches of moss reaching out of the pot and up the stem , most seem to growing pretty...

1. What do lowlanders prefer for lux? I have 10,000 lumens but I see other people giving them more; I thought they didn't like alot of light? 2. Are there any nepenthes species or hybrids that are not very humidity dependent. I.e. can do well in a windowsill or outside in a tray in the...

Well, my Dutch Hybrid has yet again outgrown the pot. It's distorting the pot itself and the pitchers are mutating because it's too cramped. Would it do more harm to leave it, or to split it now when it's in the middle of growing season? (Summer here) Also, what sort of pot would be more...

Up for trade is the SG N. albomarginata pictured below. The smaller one is the one I'm offering. It has been growing fast and well for me, but it is time to repot, and I'd like to expand my collection is possible. I'm looking for neps that can withstand similar, relatively low humidity and...
