space

And like most plant folks who live where the snow flies, one of the major limits on what I keep is lighted space. My house doesn't have much window space, and some of what's there is reserved for cats. I have a few set ups with artificial lighting, but still run out of space every winter...

UGH............................ I'm moving this month out of the current rental and been looking for a new, place. I've spent over a month looking for the perfect house, with the perfect backyard, since my plants are my, priority lol. So I found the perfect house! but not perfect, backyard. It...

Let's say due to money constraints or whatever, you could only grow one carnivorous plant. What would it be and why? Personally, I would only have Cephalotus (which is currently what I'm doing now because I'm planning to move soon). It looks like Audrey Junior from Little Shop of Horrors, it's...

After graduating college and taking a full-time job recently, I decided to get serious about growing plants again! My office has way more desk space than I need, so I figured I would start a little grow op! For lighting, I chose a 4-bulb, 2ft T5HO fixture from Apollo Horticulture. It comes with...

Hey all, I am planning to set up a cephalotus grow space using LEDs and I was wondering if the lights found here: http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-LED-Spotlight-Bulb-TriBand-Spectrum---ONE seem appropriate. If they do I will purchase them and place my cephalotus under them and let you know how...

I am really annoyed about this issue that I just want to discuss it here. Everytime I do a youtube search for carnivorous plants looking for any sort of cool legitimate videos outthere. I bump into a series of massively plagiarized non- legitimate videos created by wierd fake accounts. Over 50...

Hey all, I have a N. amp up for trade. I knew that when I got it, two years ago, that it would eventually outgrow the space I have for it. But I wasn't going to let that stop me from enjoying an amp for two years. This plant is shown with a 18" ruler in the foreground. It has spent summers...

I am going to build a new greenhouse later this year as I have run out of room and I want to increase my water pressure. The old one is rectangle, about 5M long/ 2.8M wide and 2.8M tall, I use misters that run off the house on timers, the house water is from a bore that feeds to a tank then...

I feed my VFT's small crickets a few times each season, and went to our resident herp and exotics shop yesterday to pick up a dozen or so when I got... distracted. They had expanded their bug section quite a lot since last I had been there, and I was too weak to resist. Meet my new...

Hello, it's been quite a while since I have posted on this forum, Ive become pretty busy/stressed out with college and working in between semesters, Im glad to be back though :) . Unfortunately most of my CPs didn't make it through this past year :(, but Im going to try my hand at them again...

I have limited space for carnivorous plants, but for those who are interested, this is my list. I kind of like my plants bloody, red, and dangerous looking. I also have regular house plants, but I'm definitely not listing those as there are too many. Pink is quantity for trade/sell. Green is...

Hey all! It's been a while...long story short, I'm moving to a new place here in Gainesville that has some outdoor space and I'm thinking of downsizing my collection (pretty much exclusively Drosera now) to those that can do well outside year round. 9a indicates winters that can get down to...

My technological situation dictates that embedding a photo at this time is not going to happen. I'll try to do it later or if you're seriously interested, I can email it. I am relocating my bog garden and want to make some room. I have a few of these plants available and at least one is...

In my ongoing effort to clean up as well as free up some space, I realized that I have two utric hybrids that have not been adequately shared. - U. nephrophylla x U. nelumbifolia - U. nephrophylla x U. reniformis f. courte These are crosses I've made in the past 2 years. The flowers for both...

So, thanks to my limited space for growing things, but my love of nepenthes anyways, I feel sometimes the smaller varieties get ignored in favor of the giant ones, but many of them have pretty traps too. So I have made it my mission that every year I am going to purchase 1 tiny nepenthes species...

Over the past few years I have been gifted with some Sarracenia jonesii . As these plants have grown and divided I find my space running short. I have two small divsions that I will be giving away, including paying the shipping. The following rules apply: 1. You must be a "green" or thank you...

I'm new here & to CP in general. I have grown many types of plants for many years though & have a new love. I built a large 60X30X48" tall terrarium (it also has 10" of water in the bottom with fish etc) I'd like to include one or two lowland nepenthes in. It's a fairly new setup, the day temp...

Now that I'm done with college and can have my plants with me again I decided a dedicated grow space was in order. Given where I live I decided a grow shelf seemed to be my best bet. I ordered the materials a couple weeks back and they arrived Monday. Finished getting it set up yesterday and I'm...

New here, and just posting a quick "Hi". I grow mostly dews (as many as I can find the space for), but have a few VFTs and pitcher plants going as well. This nep just arrived in the post this morning - N. ampullaria "Bau Green". Not much to look at for the moment, but I figure it'll be putting...

For some time now I have been struggling for room in my greenhouses so I took stock of the space I could make available and decided to purchase a small 6ft x 4ft ( 1.8m x 1.2m) polycarbonate greenhouse. This is intended to house my Darlingtonia and the odd bryophyte and /or orchid. One tree had...
