Should I care at all about any elements rocks may release as long as the rocks I use pass the acid test? I'm not really worried about Pinguicula or Nepenthes, but I'd also like to grow Utricularia and Drosera in a terrarium. I'd really like to use rocks that look calcerous but aren't. Something that looks like lace rock (that would be perfect, but changes PH ) but won't harm the plants. The best thing I can think of is lava, but the elements it may release have me worried. I've always been really hesitant to use lava even though many do. I'm afraid It'll just be my luck that I get some from a crappy volcano
I could always use pumice and could carve it into what looks like lace rock, but pumice is an ugly color. Can you safely dye/stain rock? Not like a tannin stain, but like a real stain from a dye. This is actually the rock I wanted to use until I saw the disclaimer that it may raise PH http://www.adana-usa.com/index.php?...s_id=4&zenid=8a2d9ff936f59d257ecd135df2c3540b
