Ordered a cephalotus online. It arrived "shaken, not stirred". On top of that I noticed upon closer examination of the plant an earth worm poking out to say hello. Worm was evicted with prejudice but where there is one, there could be more.
The general rule of thumb is to leave a Ceph that...
Sorry for a second post on pests but I rather get rid of them then regret not doing anything. I have a small 2.5 gallon tank with my nepenthes ampullaria and my utricularia longifolia and apparently fungus gnat larvae are snacking on my live sphag. Usually I have no problem with fungus gnats...
Does anyone have an airplane fertilizer they use they can recommend me?
I wonder what N-P-K rating most airplanes like and also what might the N-P-K rating of my worm bin juice be in case I could use an extremely watered down homegrown fertilizer. I saw one website recommended 10-15-20. I guess...
I've always been interested in taking the superstition and mystery out of the cultivation of CPs. In the past I've had the opportunity to do so from a cultivation angle, now I have more-quantitative tools available.
I'll often see discussions of old media coming up. Many repot religiously to...
My N. Whisper started to open up its new leaf and I found a pest that I've seen before in my collection. I know how to get rid of it (well I guess not completely since it has popped up once before) but I'm just curious to know what it is.
It's always on the newest unopened nepenthes leaf. It...
As some of you know I lost my whole collection due to a power outage. My new assignment has brought me to the state of Massachusetts.
this is a weird offer. but i am dividing my worm composting bin, and was wondering when the weather gets a little warmer if any of you are interested in trading...
Luckily I've already gotten some babies off this one and some cuttings so I'm not at a loss, but I'm just curious what did the damage?
See through worm seemed to be the most likely culprit I found in the pot. They were everywhere under the dead leaves.
I also had these maggots in the soil...
Just got rid of mealy bugs now I have some weird larva or worm that eats new growth and leaves this behind

Today, as I was looking over my neps, I saw a worm wriggling in the open media. I thought to myself... how can that be? I've always been careful to use all new medium and new pots when transplanting my neps and I always use RO water from the store... then it hit me: I've seen snails on my...

Hello everyone,

So any help IDing would be of value.

I got this plant by accident a few months ago labeled as N. glabrata. I was kind of disappointed, but as it turns out it's a really beautiful species. This is one of its fist pitchers (with teefs)
N. boschiana x densiflora (probably BE...
Recently I noticed some worms seem to live in some pitchers of my N. glabrata. The worm is about 1-2cm long, and very thin, like a thread.
Here is the pic. Does any one have any idea about what is this? How to kill them? ???
Thanks
Hey guys. Here's a few pics for Spring of some of my indoor plants - mostly the results of seeds and pullings.
Hope you like em. :)
A few of the Sarr seedlings...various hybrids - Thank you Travis/Pyro and Andy/adnedarn!!!
Another sarr seedling
This one's still holding his security...
Where do they come from and how do you get rid of them? Every once in awhile, like when I repot a plant. I see a worm scurrying away to hide. They're indoor plants and I use mostly dried LFS, along with distilled or rain or snow water.
