Hi im growing my nepenthes in a 10 gallon aquarium with a 40 watt compact florecent light bulb and I was thinking of growing it outside in about 30% shade because many peoples neps. look much better when grown outside. So what should I do?
I live in Reading, PA, similar climate. Mine are all outdoors in hanging baskets. Until this week, they were doing fine. A few have reacted. I don't think they like the excessive heat. That is to say that different Neps can tolerate the heat better than others. The ones giving me trouble came from Home Depot and don't know what species they are. Could be ventricosa. You might have the same.
yeah that's what i thought. it's so hot my ac in y house runs alllllllllllll day long and if you do dare go outside within 5 min of being there your drenched with sweat due to high humidity. yuck! my bill last month was 295 and thats leaving the ac on 80. but that's tx for ya!
$295? Our planet's weather is going to h*** . Here in san diego, we almost had some rolling black outs because our power supplier is crap. But I guess that's what you'd expect in cali. Had a tornado here yesturday... in San Diego... purplexes me.
wow, thats crazy. all we have to worry about here in heat stroke and the occasional tornado, but that isn't happin this year we haven't had a decent rain in months. we get a sprinkle here and there when theres "scattered showers". yeah, $295, i can only imagine what this months will be. we didn't hit 100 last month. with heat advisorys everyday our bills will be outragous!
