Go! Go! Go! Go!

 

[kwende]

Very nice. Would you mind sharing the conditions you put them under?

 

[corky]

so cool how fast these little guys are growing

50/50 peat sand t-5 fluorescent lights drip trays half way up the pot rain water.70-75degrees days65-70degrees night12hours lights on 12off till they get going .

 

[Wire Man]

I'll probably have to up my photoperiod up to 12h then and hope it doesn't trigger D. cistiflora to go dormant.

 

[kwende]

Thanks for the info. I'll probably remove a sundew from the terrarium to make room for them so these guys get the intense lights of my 6 T-8s. The temperature ranges you specify perfectly match the existing climate of my terrarium. Right down to the photoperiod.

@Wire Man - cistiflora, eh? That one has gorgeous flowers. If it flowers I'd love to see the pictures.

Your D. androsacea are already putting out new leaves.

 

[uphwiz]

your androsacea, i have a few of those left from the same batch , i got a little out of controll i got about ten different pygmy dews at the sam time they all are coming along , do have a pic of your androsacea?

 

[Wire Man]

Don't have pics of them yet. I was going to place a big order for gemmae, too, but have nowhere to put all of them.

 

[Nepenthesis]

Just potted mine today along with five other species and one hybrid... Is it okay if they get slightly buried by the peat? Yours are looking great!

I would avoid letting them go under the soil completely out of sight.
