    Tomorrow's the day...that my disabled spider turns 1 month old.

    When I brought my Byblis liniflora home on November the 28th, I noticed a smal,l white insect-like body on the soil in the glass terrarium. With, one long, thin leg. My immediate reaction: 'Ew, at least it won't be there for long...' A couple hours later, I came back to check on the Byblis...

    The Safest?

    I've recently adopted a male budgerigar. In the process of bird-proofing the room, I had to move out some houseplants, because I'm not sure if they're toxic or not. My mom really wants either new plants, or to figure out if the plants are toxic or not. Would anyone here know what are safe and...

    Sundews not finishing their meal

    Adelae have feasted on small fruit flies this year and now have them stuck all over them and look like they have been covered in dirt. Were they never told to clean their plate or that other plants are starving in other areas of the world? Could be attention-seeking to get me to get the...

    bugs/neem

    I just sprayed everything down with neem because I noticed a handfull of my plants had creepy crawlies (one bad shipment, etc.). The one thing in particular that I noticed was that the N.inermis growing tip had them fighting for space because it got attacked the hardest, with N.platychila...

    Antechron returns

    Hello everyone! Some of you may remember me from a long time ago. Some of you may also remember that I suddenly became an innactive member. Well, I went down to Brazil, and now I am back. I asked my mother to take care of my plants while I was away and she did a much better job than i ever...

    Spider removal, without killing plants

    G'day everyone, Just have a quick question for you all. Among the numerous spiders which happily co-exist in and around my Nep collection there is, I have just discovered today, a funnel web. I am happy for the rest of the spiders to live inside my Neps, as they are harmless and have a good...

    Propagation experiment

    I'm just doing this for fun so... no comments on how late in the season, lighting, etc. -shrug- I was just bored so I figured I'd try it. I took pullings w/o roots from my S. x 'Dana's Delight' and my VFT typical. I also took a bud from my spider plant as an afterthought, since I've been...

    "It looks like a spider shamming dead . . ."

    While digging through some books the other day, I happened upon a very old illustrated collection of H.G. Wells stories I hadn't seen in years. Among The War of the Worlds, First Men in the Moon, When the Sleeper Wakes and The Country of the Blind, there were some odd rare short stories...

    Couple Pics from the garden

    I was finally able to enjoy an evening to myself tonight so thought I'd snap a couple pictures of the plants. Once again there was a small mantid snooping around waiting for a meal. He wasnt doing much waiting though as he was jumping around more like a cricket then a mantid! He seemed to stick...

    Very confused... need help/opinions.

    I wanted to hold off seeking help to see if they would recover by themselves first, but things aren’t looking up and I am now pretty confused. This is regarding my two S. ‘Judith Hindle’ clones. I got them last year in the fall and they did fine. They went into dormancy and came out with no...
