Very nice, dude. It's cool that you're jumping into propagation so quickly. You'll probably be controlling the sundew racket in no time.
 
haha thanks mato. not my goal but if it comes to that ill be more than happy to share beautiful plants with everyone. My main goal is to open a nursery and i figured carnivorous plants will be a large leap forward. To me alot of these species seem to be quite easy to grow. I even seem to be successful in bringing almost dead plants back to life. like i always say i dont have a green thumb i have a whole green hand. I know my setup isnt the most extravegant thing on the forum but i have most all the materials to make what i imagine in my head everytime i look at my current set up. its just being pacient and not blowing my entire savings and rent to have it right away. I did get a bunch of things in the mail today tho so my shelves are filling up quite quickly so i may be forced sooner than later to upgrade.

CHECK EM OUT!

My Drosera Spatulata is producing its first buds... im so excited i cant wait!!!!!
 
dang.. I want D. indica sprouts too! Maybe I should get off my duff and send a SASE out.
You're the 2nd person I know that scored a Smurf.
 
Yeh I went tnrough an international distributor and he was nothing but kind. Those indica were gronw in australia totally diffrent form. I guess from what he says. I can't wait to do some cross pollination and see what I come out with
 
yep. i like them i know that people dont think they are that great but i think they have some really potential.
