Eric, I soaked some of mine for 24 hours. one batch in RO water, the other in a Mixture of diluted superthrive. the superthrive soaked seeds seem to be the most swollen right now. I am hoping they will be the first to germinate.
Okay thanks. I know they take awhile to germinate but I'd like to know a general time frame for when this batch seems to be germinating to see if I'm figuring this out alright. Thanks for keeping me posted!
Hey guys! So I should have many more seeds available in the next week or two. And I recently pollinated the 19, 20, 21, and 22nd flowers that this plant has produced. Two with Whimgrinders lowii x veitchii x boschiana, one with his possible Tiveyi, and one with his possible ramispina x tobaica.
I may have had three germinate, but I'm not sure. I was seeding them the same time as I was seeding some Byblis and some fell into the Byblis pot, which is where the little sprouts are. It's too early to tell which they are.
Gexx, does Superthrive normally work for you? I have some, but I was worried about trying it.
NatchGreyes, I have seen no ill effects from it. That being said, i have also not noticed any positive effect either. I have only very recently been using it regularly. i spray a diluted mixture of it once a week, or every other week now.
I'm having some issues pests in the pots into which they were sown. There are a bunch of small whitish little insects crawling around in them. I think they might be fungus gnat larva, but I have been treating for them for weeks. Any ideas?
Bio, no idea but try bayer 2 in 1, imidicloprid is the main ingredient. As for doing anything special I doubt it. I mist my pots which are covered in cling wrap once a week. It takes months not weeks for nepenthes seed to germinate, be patient and you likely will have germination.
I have germination on my rokko x ventricosa, rokko x (thorelii x aristo), rokko x viking, and rokko x truncata. It seems that every cross has worked at least a little bit! Good luck to everyone!
