OMG its been a while!
I've been so darned busy its not even funny, trying to make it in this world and enjoy life as much as I can. I got into a second hobby about 5 years ago collecting and...
Can you get access to a better camera for a better photograph?
Looks like sooty mold which is usually harmless. You try wiping it off with a wet paper towel? Increase airflow to combat it if it is bothering you.
I would also cut the leaves in half to reduce water loss. Apparantly the root system was also damaged in addition to less than favorable conditions. Right now it is dessicated and needs all the...
I second Orthenex, I've used it in the past with excellent results. Also may want to look into a fungicide, I agree with Tony, I see some other potential issues.
I really should do a re introductory post since my absence! I hate going off topic here against my mod duties :nono:
swords, whats up man, its been awhile huh?
Since you are in that situation just standby for another week or so and see what happens. Nepenthes seed can be funny! Sometimes they germinate overnight almost and other times weeks on end until...
Most likely LL truncata. Looking good, truncata is fairly slow species but given optimum conditions should move along nicely. Watch your moisture levels, don't want to be too wet now that they are...
The thread has been reported, I personally don't take offense to it. If another mod does then it will be handled.
Thanks to everyone! I had a great b-day even though most of my friends have went back to college and the military. Oh well, bars are now free game! haha
Tony, know any good ones down your way?...
I fyou look smack dab in the middle of the second picture on the leaf looks like there is something there like a mite perhaps, or the fruiting body of something else. I vote for mites as well. Drier...

And Tony, pick up your phone!
Why would you use neem oil? Neem is more geared for pest problems, specifically insect pests, not a fungus problem. I would lean more towards a fungicide like Clearys or even a generic soap to help...
Another point to make about pot size and type is:
A squat pot will hold more water than a taller pot, therefore they should be avoided IE: bulbs pans or azalea type pots.
Taller pots promote...
Usually, you want to exchange air. So....way less humidity isn't necessarily a bad thing. I would set a fan as an exhauster, to pull hot, stagnant air out and refresh with outside air. Ever wonder...
That looks like rust to me. Remember, rust is a basidiomycete, which means it usually has two hosts....so if you have plants nearby with rust they could inoculating the Nep leaves with urideospores....
Nectar won't rot the pitchers, otherwise why would the plant have evolved the way it to only to destroy it adaptive pitchers? The only rarer case of something like rot arising from sugary secretions...
I wouldn't worry about sterilization or pasteurization at all for seeding on LFS, just make sure there is very high air circulation and the light intensity is equally high. The only thing you'll have...
Knock off the capslock stuff, thats really irritating. Listen to people here.....
Yes, you should have stated what you said earlier....
Max, the point is be mindful of the environment. Its not about right and wrong it is about CONSERVATION. Yes, plants may be stepped on by fishermen but what do you think if you're out there...
