Heliamphora pulchella (Akopan)

[Adam]

At that point (or sooner) I would also go
1:1:1
LFS/APS/Perlite

I'm stupid, but what is APS?

Aquatic plant soil, sold by a few vendors

http://www.pondcare.com/Products/Product.aspx?ProductID=20

Schultz sells it as well... but their's seems to be harder to find

and sold by another company for a different application under the name of "Truface" and some variants of kitty litter and Oil dry

But for that warm and fuzzy feeling and ultimate safety go with products designed for plant use

Here's mine!

Now to go find some orchid fertilizer....

Butch,

Plant arrived fine. It's potted and currently checking out its other cellmates... Thanks again for your generosity. Cheers!

 

[DavyJones]

Geeze. How am I supposed to measure out 1/32 of a tsp to mix up this fertilizer. And that's for a gallon. I wanted to make 2 cups...

Looks like we gotta try this drug dealer style. I think I got it right.

Wow thats one big division!

 

[Nep Lover]

i was surprised at the size when it arrived, almost thought i didnt have enough lfs for it too

 

[GrowinOld]

Davy Jones...
Perhaps take 1/2 tsp of it, add it to 16 oz of water, (or 1/4 tsp to 8 oz.) mix & then take one oz of the mixture & add it to the gallon of water.
Store the rest in the fridge until needed.

[Av8tor1]

hehehehehe

 

[SirKristoff]

Butch, you and your insane light set up and beautifully colored Helis... ill trade you any day

 

[JB_OrchidGuy]

Butch that was the name of the game when I started. Ya know? Dews produce and procude, and since I was just a hobby grower why not get others started. It was my pleassure bro! It feels good to be back. I cannot wait to get the dew collection up again and Utrics so I can again send out the massive boxes! Maybe one day I can do the same with Helis and Neps like you do.

I got the plant on wednesday. I have it under flourescents bagged for humidity. I added a layer of live sphag to the top and buried the ends of the sphag in the soil so it will stay alive through capillary action.

 

[carnivoure12]

I received one of Butch's heliamphora divisions secretly, it came beautifully, thanks Butch!

 

[Av8tor1]
