Hello,

Cool that matches my terrarium setup almost exactly. Maybe I will look around for one. Your albomarginata look great as well.
Great photos and plants! Do you have any problems growing Truncata X XTrusmadiensis under lowland conditions? Or do you have it in intermediate/highland?
Wow. Thanks for the info. :)
Is your basement naturally cool because of the climate you live in? Because your highland plants seems to be doing great.
Great pics! I really like the N.flava. What kind of grow setup do you have?
Spectacular plants as always :)
Hey thanks. I lurk more than I post since I don't have very many plants any more. My plants thank everyone on the forum though, there's a lot of good advice on here.
And who gets sick on their...
So far only the ventricosa has had any pitchers die. The top half of 2 pitchers have died, and the third looks a little rough but isn't dead yet. The copelandii had one of its pitchers lower its lid,...
Brown patches are usually signs of stress/shock. Has the plant continued to grow? How does the growth point look?
Regulating personal safety is a mistake, IMHO. That's the only point I was trying to make. Current law makes no difference on my opinion.
I hate to use the "slippery slope argument" because it's...
So any restriction on driving would be justified in your opinion? Seem silly to me.
That's not true though. You don't have to wear a helmet where I live. It's your opinion that it should be, not the law in all 50 states.
I agree, although in the end I suppose this is my "opinion" and it shouldn't be forced on anyone else. Although I'd imagine it's a little less debated than something like a seatbelt, it's easy to...
My personal opinion is that the government should only "encourage" people to be more responsible, and not punish them for being irresponsible. For example, perhaps if you're pulled over not wearing...
Update. All three plants took the expected hit. I decided to move them directly on the windowsill and did not use the ziplock acclimation method I had planned. The pitcher lids lowered on the...
Works great now :)
Awesome plants. You've got a PM.
Great plants! Some of your highland Nepenthes image links don't work. Fix 'em up, I'd like to see your truncata highland!
To save money on textbooks:
Write down the name, author, and edition of the textbooks you need at your bookstore. Search on Half.com. A lot of the time there is a paperback edition, and you can...
Plants arrived!

I guess all I can do is cross my fingers now.
N.x ventrata is one of my favorite Neps. Tommyr, if you weren't aware you were very close with your guess (ventrata is the hybrid of ventricosa and alata). I grew several of those outside when I...
Cool Pyro. Any comments on your lab conditions/humidity? Which plants are doing the best/worst?
Gecko, how are they doing? Are they all pitchering? How long did they take to acclimate?
Everyone can stop posting, andy has fixed everything! :)
Well, I don't really have the option of setting up a terrarium where I live, so I'm going to try growing some Neps in my windowsill. House is air-conditioned, so humidity is almost nil. Window gets a...
