D. regia seeds

[charlie]

I just scored these from the seed bank. They were shipped today. I have not had a TON of experience with germinating drosera. I have done sessifolia capensis and probably more (I just haven't been growing carnivores long enough to germinate a ton of seeds. I have germinated some either filiformis, intermedia, or capillaris.) . I am wondering if there are a ton of requirements other than having food. I have tons of little bugs in my germination chamber perfect for baby dews and VFT's. Can I use orchid 30-10-10 on the seedlings. I am guessing the media would be NZ sphag.

Thanks so much,
Charlie
