*Has never paid 300 for a nep*
Back on topic, for this particular trap, thats a very high price, but I would pay that much for one as unique as wacky or KMS or several other mutants that dont look the same as a bunch of others..Well who ever paid almost $200 dollars for a normal looking flytrap is just as crazy if not more than someone who pays $300 for a nepenthes.
1 year for a flowering N. edwardsiana...
Hilarious.
OK you know what.. Ill make that a 2-3 yr flowering one.. And with using other tc stats for other plants, that is beyond reasonable.
LOL!!!! That is possibly the most ridiculous claim I have ever heard!
They do offer business class in high school, I took it and got a ninety eight...
Maybe you should try growing something other than a ventricosa before making claims about your Nepenthes growing prowess...
It may sound hilarious but so did flying to the moon in the early 1900's... if we work at it by tweaking the genes and adding hormonal structures from a plant that can flower in 1 year then ya.. it most certainly is possible.
a 2-3 year old edwardsiana would be about 1" in diameter. How do you turn that into a several feet wide several meter tall plant?

We are talking about current technology. I am sure it might be possible in 60 years though with our current advancements in gene technology.
If you go about tweaking the genes, it ain't an eddie anymore...
Dooms, at this point you are just talking conspiracy about the big vendors.
And also, you have never tc'd Nepenthes, you can talk all you want about flytraps, you can even call yourself an expert, but let the Nepenthes tissue culture experts like BigBella or Borneo log on and talk about their field of expertise.
But trust me, I know some things about nepenthes culture that people would call blashphemy at this point.
Like what? Can you give evidence to back up these statements?
