Cephalotus clones

Apply those and most of the current cultivars would be disqualified.

Bigger pitcher is easily obtained in terrariums with high humidity and low light. which I would consider a less than ideal environment.

As I said - I am being punished by my Cephalotus for providing excellent lighting and atmospheric conditions! :ohno:

That pretty up sums up my point, they are not cultivars in my opinion. Just registered plants:-))

With the 6 or so expections that have real possibilities of meeting those requirements.

I wouldnt grow them that way. It can make the soft. And soft plants are a magnet for a host of problems.

never tried it with a lot of clones. after growing that way I decided I wanted healthy plants instead of big plants. quickly switched to a open air setup with lots of airflow. plants never looked better!

i grow them the same jkal,I also find lots of variation when i grow the same clone in different pots in different places

So you guys say for healthier cephs to grow them in open air I just built a terrarium so I should jut keep my heli in there

Cephs can be adapted to most conditions - here in the U.K. Mine stay outdoors all year long - if we have a cold snap minus temps then I only take them into my shed or garage.
I feel there better kept harder but I like rss setup he made last year with racking that was the other type of ceph setup I would go with but it's your choice!

Happy growing
