I've got a magic window!
I have a few Drosera slackii plants.
My main pot with 3 plants is growing in my terrarium. The plants here are growing great.
I had some left over that I potted up and placed on the windowsill to see how they will do. Since I grow many other Drosera this way I thought it would be no problem for this one as well. They have been there for several months. I have noticed that these plants are not doing well at all.
I'm trying to see what might be the problem and if others have experienced the same.
Questions I'm going to try to answer myself, and curious what others have found are:
Does this plant require more humidity then many other Droersa? The humidity in the terrarium is not that much higher the on the windowsill, so I'm not sure that is the issue.
The soil I grow this plant is the same in both pots, so I doubt that's it.
Lighting......, this may be an issue. The ones on the windowsill only gets bright indirect light where I have them located now. I may move a pot or 2 to a better location and see how they respond.
Does anyone else grow them as windowsill plants and how have they done there?
