Ok the last topic seemed to move away from cultivation information.
This topic is for cultivation information only. Here are some links I dug up.
N.rajah cultivation info from Nepenthes University
Brief description from Johannes Mirabini (sp? sorry)
Quote from Nepenthes Gracilis
Temperature- Day-60-80F
Night-50-45F
Light- one 15 watt growlight that is 1 foot long
Soil- Living Spahgnum moss
Humidity in general humidity should remain about 70% at all times, but can flucuate down to 50% with no effects. But at night it MUST be in the range I descrbe for night, Rajah NEEDS it that high for very good growth. Day- 70-80%
Night- ALWAYS must be near 100% IE: 80-90% is fine.
Air circulation- must be good to keep fungus at bay as for all nepenthes.
Feeding- feed when posible with a smaller than normal insect to keep pitcher from rotting, but the tiny piece will suffice the plant greatly.
Watering- water when need with cool-chilly water.
If anyone else has first hand experience feel free to add to this discussion.
Cultivation info only please! Thanks.
