Let me preface this by informing you that I've recently realized I have a thrip infestation of my outdoor Sarr's and VFT's (and my non-cp plants as well). Bearing that in mind, I've started Neem oil treatment on everything.
The first question: Is Neem Oil lethal to bees, butterflies, and other...
Hey guys, im here today asking for help or any pointers about making a Highland Nepenthes terrarium, as I am on the verge of buying a Hamata, and if I ever get lucky enough, an Edwardsiana.
So is there anything in particular that I need for this setup? Im aware that the Highlanders need 70% or...
Hey guys. Not so long ago, I decided to get back into Nepenthes growing, as they are just an epic species of carnivorous plant. Definitely my favorite.
As this is my summer of projects, I decided to go all out and drop some money on all the terrarium supplies I would need and build a very nice...
Hi guys. I'm new to this hobby, this is my current plants.Currently planning to build a terrarium but I got only few info on building one, I'm a bit hesitant about my lighting and fan for cooling my lights even I'm planning to put LED tube on it.
Any suggestions would be well appreciated.
I...

Just wondering if this is mold, or something else (hairs?). It's in pretty bad shape, I think it's almost certainly going to lose most of it's existing leaves. My only form of mold control atm is to manually remove what I can, and spray the...
Here are a couple of the Petiolaris I got a couple months back, I am lucky to have a climate that allows me to grow them outside, I got these from a guy that uses a terrarium, so had a fun time acclimating them the last several weeks, the lanata went Dormant but looks to be coming out of it and...
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 this orchid, with only very little history on it. I know it's a long shot, but I'm hoping someone here might be able to help ID it, even if only to pin a genus/group on it.
It is at least 3 years old, as I have had it for that long. Potted in store-bought orchid substrate, in a 2 inch...
This trade is for D. intermedia seeds. The plant was sold to me labaled as "Hardy Sundew, Drosera intermedia". I have had it for 18 months. It has flowered profusely in that time, frequently dropping seed in the LFS substrate of the terrarium where it lives, resulting in herds of volunteers...
Almost all of my indoor carnivores live in a tropical terrarium in my reptile room. The only exception is my N. alata, who is a lot more tolerant of general household conditions (fluctuating temps and humidity) than my other carnivores.
The terrarium. Husband made the custom hood for it, with...
This is my D. Spatulata, looking much better after a week or so in the terrarium, and now I can more clearly see where new growth is coming from. The thing came in a little 2" seedling pot which definitely seems a bit small, but before I consider re-potting, I'd like to know how to go about this...
Well, I used to have a small collection of neps and dews. However, high school started and I started taking AP classes and doing crazy high-school teenager things. I eventually got rather complacent and put everything in a terrarium, where my bad watering habits rather rapidly started an...
Hi, my name is Mya and I am currently trying to grow CP's in what is quite possible the worst place to grow them, Las Vegas. :tumbleweed:
I do not have a terrarium set up at the moment but I am going shopping for supplies in a few days and will hopefully have one soon
I mostly grow Nepenthes...
Hi all
I received a D. Regia in the post a few weeks ago and it got really damaged by the courier company :-( I potted the plant and stuck it in my Terrarium to try and boost the recovery process.. It's loving the new environment! :banana2:
N. albomarginata, N. reinwartdiana
These are the seeds I'm attempting to germinate in my new terrarium setup. The only information I can find on them claims that they are both from Borneo (at least), and that they have a massive elevation range, effectively making them both lowland and...
I decided to re-purpose one of my many empty aquariums (I'm actually an old hand at Terrarium building) into my first ever plant terrarium.
I read about other people's projects and thought about many different opinions, while also trying to stay with the KISS method. This is what I came up...
Hi all
Built myself a medium sized terrarium about a month ago. So far it seems like the Dorsera I've got in there are loving it.
With the exception of my little D. Adelae. For some reason it has turned super red almost black on the tips of it's new growth and produces no dew :-( The humidity...
Been researching what plants might be suitable for terrarium growing. Been reading older posts about them & thought I'd ask for some currant info. From what I can gather they are lowlander that doesn't get so big?
Thanks
Jim
