Yeah! I remember kind of freaking out when I bought it because the squamosa was already showing and the cistiflora was nowhere to be seen. I even emailed California Carnivores about it and they just...
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that this is normal. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing something wrong. I can't wait to see it explode into growth. There's not that much time left in the...
Hi all,
I bought a Drosera cistiflora and a Drosera squamosa hybrid at the end of the summer and so far the squamosa has been going nuts with growth, but the cistiflora slept in an extra two...
It is, but light tolerance/requirement is variable based on species. For instance, Drosera adelae doesn't seem to tolerate super bright light, but others prefer it. I've never had issues with VFTs...
I don't think I have room for one quite that big, so I bit the bullet and went with the VIVOSUN one. I also bought a black waterproof tarp to put underneath it. I don't think the issue is spilling...
The photo has a teeny caption saying it's Senecio articulatus. It's a neat looking succulent, I wouldn't mind having one myself.
Yeah, I assumed it would get pretty warm since the T5s do give off some heat. That's what I wanted though, my room is always pretty cool and in the winter, it can get into the 60s (not by my choice)....
Hi All!
Today I was planning on pulling the trigger on a cheap grow tent before the winter weather kicks in. Even in the summer, I grow most of my plants indoors because my patio is too shaded and...
Yeah I missed the part about this being a tropical terrarium. Sarr is probably not ideal. From what I understand, most dews are not tolerant of fertilizers either. Not sure about others.
The moss...
I personally would give it a shot if there are no fertilizers and I had something to spare. You won't know for sure until you try. Just put something cheap in there to start with and see what...
I always thought this was required! Guess a lot of people don't send separate packets when they donate... I can see how that would get difficult to keep up with.
Glad to see that it's been updated...
That's really a shame. I wonder if there isn't something we could do to help. Like a donation drive or something...

I wondered the same thing. I think earlier in the year they had a bunch of stuff, then all of a sudden it was S. jonesii hybrid seeds or whatever is up there now. I'd donate some but I'm just getting...
I'm thinking if you don't do orchids, you should put some pings in there, or anything with really nice flowers.

That was quick.

Hi ya'll,
I've been coming to TF on and off since I was 12 years old (I'm 25 now) and a big percentage of the CPs I got when I started out were from SASE giveaways that many of you lovely people...
I've read a few articles about when growing D. regia from a seedling to give them a few osmocote pellets for extra food. I've never really done it myself, so I can't speak from experience but it...

Maybe I will cut open the dead one to see what is primarily in there. I imagine there are a lot of fungus gnats and mosquitoes, but maybe there will be a surprise.
When I initially saw the brown part on the second pitcher, I put some distilled water into the pitcher to drown whatever insect was eating the pitcher (I thought that's what was going on). It's too...
It's weird that it's only happening to the S. minor and not the leuco or flava, they've all been eating like pigs since it got warm. The pitchers are nearly full! Still, it's nice to know that it...
So far it's happened to two pitchers. It probably starts to rot within a week of the pitcher fully opening and it takes maybe 2-3 weeks for the whole pitcher to croak.
I've only had this plant for...
I have them growing outside in full-sun. It's been averaging 80 degrees over the past couple days but the humidity varies pretty wildly. It's usually at least 50% though. They get full sun from...
Hi all,
I've got a Sarr issue that I've not had before. My S. minor keeps putting out nice pitchers and then they develop a brown ring near the base. The brown ring expands upwards until the whole...
That's a really neat science experiment! But yeah I would feel guilty too, haha.
