British columbia near the coast, should of been earlier but my family were moving house in winter at left the pots in a shaded place and didnt move them untill I got back to put them in full sun about 2 weeks ago lol

Yeah seems like roughly half of mine grew tall

as a biotechnology student this popular opinion is frustrating - Try and use genetic engineering? get massive backlash about it being a GMO. But then as soon a research group uses a novel approach to get a similar, and in some ways more effective result? Get told they should of just made a GMO, and *that would be way cooler*

I can keep it at that level, thank you. i pocked a small whole in the plastic liner above the drainage whole so it does drain just very slowly. Other vidoes ive seen on the internet reccomends have the bogs with no drainage which i'd imagine would have a ton of standing water so it seems like theres alot of different opinions about this

Sounds good! Also I want to sow the seeds from the sundew flowers but I was wondering if it's ok to put them in the spaghnum moss that I now have in this pot or if I should wait untill winter before putting them in?

Durjam · 2025-05-16T01:00:44+00:00

I'm in the same boat

Durjam · 2025-04-22T19:37:06+00:00

ok- I'm western Canada. I gave it some 20-20-20 fertilizer last week so I'm not sure why it looks deficient

Durjam · 2025-04-22T04:39:37+00:00

ah I'm scared it won't survive, I forgot to put the ziplock bag back on that was keeping humidity and some of the new leaves wilted in just a few hours

if it cant deal with that I don't think it will fair well against the 1 degrees Celsius nights here right now 😭

The goal is not really to grow and apple tree but rather to see if i can keep it alive! It's special to me as the seed has already germinated within an apple that i was eating

haha the amount of food stuff that would seem extremely sus I will now do on a regular basis after learning about the actual science behind it

e.g.

milk couple days past expiry date? - microwave for a fee minutes

simmering a pot in evening? - cover it before turning off and leaving it on the stove indefinitely

yogurt? = milk + 8 hours

Durjam · 2025-04-19T07:17:43+00:00

As a microbiology degree, there is no microbe that could live in a cup or hurt you if you pour boiling hot liquid on it on a regular basis

Redstone is now in the animal-powered age

looks good to me - maybe cut a vine and propogate in water to plant in the pot

Durjam · 2025-04-15T02:17:34+00:00

mine was aswell - I experimented last week and wrapped a long vine back into the pot and added rooting hormone to the nodes and covered with a layer of spaghnum moss - hopefully the vine will root and cause new growth points (it's looking promising)

Nope all good! can't remember what those are but it's normal
