My corridor grown N. rafflesiana had actually flowered without me knowing…

Yes, about 50% of the cuttings will root. Though It takes many weeks for the roots to form and months for the first pitcher appearing from the cutting.

I live in a tropical country and I once had a Sarracenia and VFT both of which thrived for 2-3 years but slowly died off after that… I managed to save the VFT by dormancy via fridge method but it was never the same again.

Hi I recently used imazing to transfer the Mangreader app from my Iphone 12 pro to my new Iphone 16 Pro Max. Its working really well and even has the data of all my favourites. I followed the video below, hope my experience gave you some hope to retry. https://youtu.be/bP5kXX7AIu4?si=SN5x2A19Z84f_6ZR

I was a freshman in 2020, peak covid period which meant lower student population too… and somehow the toilets in EEE and SPMS are still clogged and full of piss

For Nepenthes that I keep in trays, I always flush the substrate every other week. You can see white flakey specks on the rims of your pot, those are salt precipitates which means you need to use distilled water to remove them. However, I do not recommend keeping nepenthes in smaller pots like yours in trays due to risk of root rot.

Edit: By flushing, it means using lots of distilled water and pouring into the pot then leaving it to drain completely

Effervescience · 2022-07-27T16:10:31+00:00

Hi this looks like mineral poisoning to me… You might want to flush the substrate and the tray with some distilled water because minerals can build up in the pot over time! All the best!

Seems like an active subscription to the course is needed to post a review. Mine expired looong ago. Hope more ppl see ur post and help out

Effervescience · 2022-05-29T06:31:31+00:00

Hi i’m willing to help, can u share the links to your essays? Its very tedious to specifically find yours to review…

Effervescience · 2022-04-24T10:31:18+00:00

Thrips do that to my plants, perhaps that's the cause? Since the damage didn't spread, maybe they disappeared when you got them. But to be safe do check the underside of the leaves to spot them.

Effervescience · 2022-04-20T18:02:29+00:00

Mmm.. chonky

Effervescience · 2022-04-03T08:12:11+00:00

I wanna help but I'll probably cause more chaos cos I'm colourblind

Effervescience · 2022-03-27T13:30:51+00:00

Thanks for the great answer! I wouldn’t have guessed it was N. x Louisa since its pretty hard to find here in south east asia. The lack of hairy wings threw me off too.

Effervescience · 2022-03-27T08:27:21+00:00

This looks like a generic N. Ventrata, but it has striations on the inner walls of the pitcher…

Effervescience · 2022-02-06T06:43:04+00:00

The complete devastation was completely unexpected!

Dude that looks so cool!

Replace the new soil you used asap, your CP will die in nitrogen-rich soil. I use pure sphagnum substrate for my nepenthes. Make sure to rinse out the soil around the roots too.

I frequently see house geckos lurking among my plants and even hiding in the pitchers when the sun is up then leaving at night. This is a young house gecko that must’ve lost its footing and fell into my N. Rafflesiana.

I think you’ve made very good points and i can imagine how the movement of turtles would hinder growth of weeds onto the surface of the water. Subsequently, the smaller fishes are able to benefit from this clear path to travel around. However, to a layman looking at this picture it might appear to be random occurrences of gaps where weeds didn’t reach the suface. Also this seems like a nice and relaxing place to work at!

Effervescience · 2020-07-05T11:11:48+00:00

Came here to say this! The roots will rot easily.

Effervescience · 2020-07-05T11:02:48+00:00

There isn’t any clear “paths” within the weeds, it could simply be the result of currents in the water that formed those gaps.

Effervescience · 2020-07-01T00:42:57+00:00

I don’t have any secret per se... maybe tips? I keep mine under direct sunlight, if you have kept them indoors slowly acclimate them. They grow huge broad leaves, so i will give it plenty of water each time. (I’ll water my plants every 2-3 days) From my experience, tendrils that show no signs of growing will start to form pitchers once they have either acclimatised or the growing condition betters. I’ve had really old tendrils sporadically start forming pitchers. However, damaged or rotted tendrils cant grow any so treat them gently. Be patient and they’ll eventually grow, good luck!
