This is my first bare-root potting and boy was I not expecting how difficult it was. Although, very fun!
I soaked them for 40 minutes in distilled water. Then after potting them I gave them a subtle watering to get excess media off them. Also to make sure their in a nice moist media, like advised throughout the forum. Which, I made sure to drain into their saucers. They're currently under a 6500k 9500 lumens CFL bulb setup that's programmed to turn on at Dusk and turn off at Dawn using a digital outlet Timer. And 3 computer fans to make the temp inside at 78*F/16% humidity while the bulb is on.
Here are some photos of my setup...
^^^ This poor guy lost all his traps because I had infrequent lighting before I setup my terrarium. Had to cut 'em all off and hopefully he'll revive^^^
^^Crazy Bulb^^
I have a feeling I didn't plant these well. Is the rhizome looks like it's not be properly potted.. Please let me know if I did this properly and if there are any things I can change to my setup.
If anyone can give some pointers for them to transition easier into their new home. I'd appreciate it.
