dvg,
Where do you get your seed? I'm very interested in growing P. gigantea, and that's about it or the mexican pings. It does well in strong light outside here...or well enough to slowly keep getting bigger at least. Seeds of this species seem difficult to obtain. I at least need to get a few clones of the plant I guess so I can get my own seed
Twas what I was originally trying to do, but alas I still only have one.
SDCPs, i purchased the mexi-ping seed from Best Carnivorous Plants.
It is possible for you to manually pollinate some of your P. gigantea when they flower, and if you're successful with that, the resulting grown out seeds will provide you with multiple unique plants.
Very nice. I had read of feeding tiny seedlings such as these by sparying with a solution of crushed dried bloodworms. Haven't tried that yet, though.
That sounds like a good idea DragonsEye.
I've decided to rehydrate some bloodworms, and apply some of those to a few of the seedling's leaves to see how that works out.
When i tried the powdered betta pellets previously, i noticed that fungal growth occurred on some of the leaves, but hopefully with the bloodworms the results will be better.
