Hello,
It is currently 66F outside, with about 45F for tonights temps. The temps will raise till mid 70's over this weekend, then drop down to mid-60's with no 50's in sight. Meaning, temps will be in the mid-high 40's to low 50's at night.
Can my Sarracenia be outside? There shouldn't be ANY frost (if there is, I'll bring them inside until it's over, as I have a weather thing). Will they go dormant if I do? I just am running out of room on my windowsill, so I think bringing them outside is fine.
I just received a S. 'Bugscoop' from Victoria here (nice plant!) and I have run out of space on the only sunny windowsill in the house where the only danger is my mom reorganizing the plants so they look prettier and in alphabetical order since she is so obsessive (not really, but she CONSTANTLY reorganizes them).
So are these temps okay for them to be outside?
Daily humidity goes from 30% Humidity to 50%, with a low of 50% at night to a high of 100% (usually somewhere in the middle).
They have been in a windowsill with very bright direct light for about 5-6 hours a day and indirect, but a little low light in the morning and in the evening, but more ambient in the evening, so I feel as if leaving them outside may not be such a bad idea! (I am worried one of my plants, S. oreophila x leucophylla, since it seems to attract wasps very well but is only 6 inches tall at the tallest pitcher with 1/2 inch mouth width, will overfill with wasps and I'll have to dig them out!)
Can anyone please help?!
Thanks!
