That happened on my terra cotta pot with Drosophyllum and it was out in the open. I guess if the pot has moisture, it'll grow. Didn't hurt the plant though, and I just whiped it off occasionally.

Yeah I repotted my Cephalotus because the white mold started getting on the soil!

 

[Rob]

Update! Moved plants out of basement, trying to fight the mold issue.

I see two Eden Black seedlings! Cute lil strands of grass with a brown seed cap.

Still nothing from mine. So youve been keeping yours like, BOGGY? very water logged?

 

[Rob]

You kinda have to do a lil experimenting... I noticed for my setup, having an airtight container with little bit of water wards of fungus and whatnot.

 

[Brie]

yeah I have mine on sterilized, rinsed media.. still had some mold problems on the seed themselves..

So im squinting, looking at your pics real close, and I dont see the seed casing.. are you sure those arent just hitchiking grasses? I get them in my LFS all the time, and they look like that..

 

[Rob]

Couldn't find any seed casing for some reason.... anywhere

That was my first thought as well with the green grass stuff.

Rob here is a photo recently posted by RL7836 showing some ceph seedlings.

That does seem to be a rather stark difference...

Agree - those pics don't look like Ceph seed germination (imo).

 

[Rob]

Dang I hope they are, they sure do look like grass seed though. I sterilized the media though before?

this grew in my dried lfs seedling medium

and heres a seedling of mine - drosera anglica oregon

 

[Dexenthes]

It's C. follicularis 'long spindly' !!

 

[RL7836]

I noticed a new seedling that wasn't present yesterday - so I snapped a pic. In addition to the penny, there is an out-of-focus older seedling at ~4 o'clock for scale.

 

[Rob]

Oh so they kind look like Artichoke seedlings in a way?

 

[Rob]

New grow space!

Cephalotus from Charles Brewer.

Flower?

 

[mass]

Could be a flower. Still waiting to see my first one here, so I can't say either way. Everything looks good though.
