your platychila clone looks different from mine:

i like the "tie" your platy sports.

 

[thez_yo]

I love the tie! Otherwise the pitchers would be totally boring like you were saying at the bacps meet...now I see why you don't like the lowers

That pitcher grew in in full blazing sun, so maybe it's got to do with sunshine? My plant is also about a foot in diameter so I think mine wants to vine soon too, so maybe our plants are in different stages? I got mine from that horrible place I was telling you about so it's probably just a plain old regular BE clone...

There's some controversy regarding the BE Platychila not being pure, people say its a has Fusca features.

Is that EP's Veitchii (K)

Are you saying mine might have Fusca in it? How can you tell if your platy has fusca in it so I can give mine a proper looking-over?

It's EP veitchii from seed

Thanks, and don't know on that bongso - just got it last night . Definitely bigger than I thought I was buying!

 

[thez_yo]

macro working on opening a new pitcher (maybe this time I'll get more teeth):

jamban *still* working on growing bigger

the whole grow area/balcony (oops...kinda took over LOL):

and almost all of the neps:

Thats one really nice grow balcony. I wish I could grow my neps like that out here.

 

[Taliesin-DS]

Awesome collection of neps
I wish i could have that many.

I'm lucky, thanks! I think it's a little too much sunshine for some of them. If it ends up scorching a few that would rather hide, I can always move them further in the house so they get later-in-the-day-sun. Or buy more helis and put them in the way

Awesome collection of neps
I wish i could have that many.

Thanks! and no you don't because it's too many I think I have to downsize again...

 

[Taliesin-DS]

Yes i do
Btw, how come they're all so small ?
Are they newish or do you cut them down ?

 

[MasterGrower]

That's a very nice grow area! Beautiful neps, that jamban looks promising!

Because some aren't available in big, or because I've only been growing seriously since last July/August...

That's a very nice grow area! Beautiful neps, that jamban looks promising!

Thanks :grin: (it's a vine about 8"ish tall)

 

[jimscott]

Nice collection!

 

[thez_yo]

Nice collection!

Thanks! I've been slowly adding a million plants to my growlist whilst noone was looking ...I need to do a major giveaway to have a more reasonable sized collection...

Those cubes on the balcony are terras with helis in them, with vfts behind them where you can't see...

 

[vraev]

You got some fantastic plants and an awsome setup thez.
