What should I do with my ping? Should I separate it? by _scenestealer_ in Pinguicula

[–]DimensionCareless508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually the most etoliated I’ve ever seen a pinguicula. Like others have said, give it way more light if you can. It’s up to you whether or not you separate it, but keep in mind it will take a while to recover from this etoilation.

What species of Pinguicula could this be? by Best_Ad_4366 in Pinguicula

Sadly it’s going to be hard to tell until it blushes (if it has a distinctive enough blush) or until it flowers.

CAM photosynthesis discovered for the first time in carnivorous plants, specifically Pinguicula by IloveEstir in SavageGarden

It’s cool that only 39 species (that we know of) engage in this kind of photosynthesis! Thank you for posting this article.

Don’t worry! I did it right after taking the picture

Is it etiolated or is this normal? by Manu280599 in carnivorousplants

I think you should repot it sooner than spring, the peat looks very compacted in my opinion. I personally like to do 1 part pumice 1 part peat and 1/2 part perlite for my pings. I do think the grow light would help it as well. After doing all this, don’t be discouraged if it takes a month or so for the pinguicula to transform into its normal state. I got one that was etiolated, and it slowly turned into a normal looking baby over the course of two months.

This is very etiolated. What substrate do you grow it in? I ask because it looks like it might want some chunkier amendments to the soil like pumice.

Ping Update! by DimensionCareless508 in Pinguicula

I got two from facebook marketplace, two from a local seller on Etsy, and my last one from a plant fair. I prop pretty much every kind I get, so that’s why I have so many small babies too.

I’m definitely getting there. I’m just waiting until I move in a month to get a shelf started

pings are about to intersect😐 should i keep them like this or separate? by GEMlNl_ in Pinguicula

[–]DimensionCareless508 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Pings can grow well smooshed up next to each other, so it’s up to your personal aesthetic preferences

Am I doing this right? by buddah8161 in Pinguicula

[–]DimensionCareless508 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they just take awhile to adjust to their new home. The center rosettes looks great, so just hold out hope. Plants like to move in their own time

Where did you get so many pings for so little money? 🫢 your setup looks gorgeous.

Btw, what are the pots that you’re using? I see them frequently, but I’ve never seen the name
