    Plant of the Month December 2020

    Still working out the exact parentage on this plant which was purchased as an unlabeled rhyzome. Closest I can find is Sarracenia "Golden Eagle". Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Pitcher of the Month December 2020

    Idk it popped up in the app, I did not see a parent category. It's still regularly in the 60's and 70's during the day. I have it on a greatly reduced photo period, which it will remain on for the next three to four months. It's in an unheated space so it gets the night time drops, with any...

    Pitcher of the Month December 2020

    Still working out the exact parentage on this plant which was purchased as an unlabeled rhyzome. Closest I can find is Sarracenia "Golden Eagle". I didn't see any other entries so let's hope this gets it going. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Plant of the Month November 2020

    I do not. It is a terrestrial that has volunteered in one of my pots. It has a flower stalk which has not bloomed yet so it will be a little while before I can confidently label it. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Recommendation for beginners CP's

    Lots of people will recommend D. capensis, which might be ok. I killed my first, so it is possible to have issues with it. I'd look to see if there are any Drosera native to your area and try to grow outdoors to avoid sinking funds into an indoor setup while you're still getting the hang of it...

    I've got a ton of seedlings, but they pretty much all just look like seedlings. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Keeping kittens from snacking on plants

    They're only about a year old (they were feral kittens when I found them) so they only really make it to the end of the block before the dogs spook them. I usually bring them to the tree after as a way to let them feel some controll over the situation. Clicker training with freeze dried shrimp...

    Properties of alternative growth media

    Certainly a good place to start. When things slow down a bit I'll fill some containers with the individual soil components listed in that cpuk thread. I'm slightly limited in my current test setup, but TDS and PH measurements over time would be a good place to start. I could also do some agar...

    Just changed the setup. I also picked up some wheat grass. Hopefully it will distract them. Sent from my SM-G892U using Tapatalk

    Properties of alternative growth media

    ***notice: if a thread on this exists and I somehow overlooked it, feel free to delete this and point me in the right direction*** I've seen the issue of sphagnum and peat sustainability pop up quite frequently, but I haven't seen a centralized list of alternatives and pros/cons of their use...

    Keeping kittens from snacking on plants

    I'll keep that in mind. Right now the bog is living on my computer desk, so they are getting up there any time I do work. Sent from my SM-G892U using Tapatalk

    Hot Take: bramble edition

    I understand the three qualifications in play, however I find them a bit arbitrary. If there are the more strict and accepted requirements for a plant to be labeled carnivorous, why is there no designation for opportunistic absorption of animal decomposition through the roots? If the...

    Hot Take: bramble edition

    I don't know if I agree with that logic. Sure, any shrub given a certain size could entangle an animal, but species with brambles have an adaptation that goes beyond self defense. I'm not sure how one would ethically construct am experiment involving the sufficiently large bush and bushes with...
