Many thanks!
Any advice on the best method to sow. I have tried a mix of 50/50 sphagnum/perlite in one of those plastic containers you get soup in from the chinese rest. but no luck. Both batches (one from srduggins) the seeds get moldy. I have tried another batch on lfs like you get dried in bags at lowe's so we'll see. Any suggestions?
 
Moldy seed indicates 2 things.

1. Poor airflow
2. dead seed

My guess is that your airflow is low, seed need oxygen to germinate, not stagant soupy conditions which most people give their seed since it is a Nepenthes.
 
Mine where planted 10/25/04 painstakenly one by one like I did with Steve's nep seeds... lets cross out fingers!!

Thanks again Jermiah!!
