Cheap TDS meters can be found on eg Amazon * check the light eg light meter app (eg Photone) * check the humidity (all CPs like high humidity) so a terrarium can be fun for some CPs * check water access (bog plants like VFTs like sundews and VFTs like constant access to water, Nepenthes like regular watering) * consider how many hours of light per day (eg VFTs can handle 16 hours under grow-lights), cut back during dormancy periods * remember dormancy periods (drop in temperatures etc) as it allows your CP to rest consistent with its natural location (hence why Nepenthes, being tropical plants, don’t have a marked dormancy period like VFTs and sundews) I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these weeks so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts!

It’s amazing to see some many Cephalotus under one roof. So I was able to take some photos of the terrariums and other Cephalotus. These can be a bit tricky to grow but under the right conditions (like all CPs) they can thrive. And something rarely seen - a Cephalotus with a flower stalk! They can be tricky to pollinate and even to get seeds from but this Cephalotus owner managed it.

I've only had her for 6 months (and put her in the wrong pot), and she is already flowering 🥹 despite the fact. I had to share. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #CarnivorousPlants #Pinguicula #FloweringPlants 13 7 Comments @PersephoneAlata · 4M Happy #cpclubthursday! Thought I'd share the unique setup I had designed for one of my pings, Athena. I wanted to try something other than rocks, and she wasn't doing well in the mix I initially had her in, so I made her a moss tower out of a (humanely sourced) deer vertebra. Took a while to sterilize it, but the idea was to run the moss through the places where spinal fluid and blood circulate, so that when stood in water (like the lava rock method) it circulates through the top, to the roots, and the excess funnels back down. The shape lends itself well to that water movement, and until everything is thoroughly attached/rooted, it's being held with silk threads. She looks like shes doing better in this situation, I think it also helps with root aeration. If it works as well as I theorize, then I'll make more.

The tiny one was a surprise! I was out of town when they were delivered, and the box was left upside-down. Im pretty certain that it's from the same plant based on a spot that appears to be missing a leaf (however, I'm also fully aware that a leaf pulling turning into a whole new plant in the course of a week is ludicrous) still, very excited to be introducing Pings into my crazy plant family! They look like little buttons! Making a nice pot for them soon. #happyplants #cpclubthursday #carnivorousplants #pinguicula #butterwort #plantsmakepeoplehappy #aphroditetheping 12 9 Comments @Merranda · 4M #salealert #dealalert Happy Halloween everyone!

Last Saturday there was a major sale of Nepenthes from a main Australian supplier (Carnivaro - similar name to a US supplier Carnivero!) So popular is it that it had a countdown to the sale commencing and no wonder when you see the Nepenthes for sale. Some highlights: a Nepenthes Edwardsiana for AUD $749 (that’s over US $492 or £380 or 454 Euro!!!) The next most expensive was a bargain at AUD $438 for a Nepenthes Hamata. I’ll add all the photos I took in the comments below 👇 so if you wonder what Nepenthes can look like, this gives you an idea. And so were less than AUD $30 so there a Nepenthes for everyone! And being tropical, as a posted before, dormancy isn’t so much an issue as with many other CPs.

So here’s a great way to look at growing CPs that seems to be a great way as with most hydroponics, you need to add nutrients to the water but with CPs they prefer a nutrient free medium to grow in (hence eg peat moss/perlite or pure sphagnum moss!) This guy is a great resource for anyone growing Nepenthes indoors (hence the Windowsill Nepenthes) and Remy is based in Canada (from France hence French accent!). So I have been watching his LetPot hydroponic videos and he just released his latest update. Here’s the video and it’s fairly short (6.5 minutes): https:// It’s similar to other brands like Aerogarden (did they go out of business recently !?!) in using plugs into a water reservoir and grow lights. Anyway share if you have tried this hydroponic system for your own CPs or similar or planning to give it a go! Oh and Remy has a nice simple Nepenthes growing guide on Amazon (only 42 pages): Pitcher Plants Beginner Guide: Easily grow these carnivorous plants on your windowsill, choose the right species, understand their needs, and keep them healthy and pitchering. https:// I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these week so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts!

The tiny one was a surprise! I was out of town when they were delivered, and the box was left upside-down. Im pretty certain that it's from the same plant based on a spot that appears to be missing a leaf (however, I'm also fully aware that a leaf pulling turning into a whole new plant in the course of a week is ludicrous) still, very excited to be introducing Pings into my crazy plant family! They look like little buttons! Making a nice pot for them soon. #happyplants #cpclubthursday #carnivorousplants #pinguicula #butterwort #plantsmakepeoplehappy #aphroditetheping @PersephoneAlata posted 4M ago 8 6 #salealert #dealalert Happy Halloween everyone!

Last Saturday there was a major sale of Nepenthes from a main Australian supplier (Carnivaro - similar name to a US supplier Carnivero!) So popular is it that it had a countdown to the sale commencing and no wonder when you see the Nepenthes for sale. Some highlights: a Nepenthes Edwardsiana for AUD $749 (that’s over US $492 or £380 or 454 Euro!!!) The next most expensive was a bargain at AUD $438 for a Nepenthes Hamata. I’ll add all the photos I took in the comments below 👇 so if you wonder what Nepenthes can look like, this gives you an idea. And so were less than AUD $30 so there a Nepenthes for everyone! And being tropical, as a posted before, dormancy isn’t so much an issue as with many other CPs. Enjoy 😊 I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these week so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts! I have also added many posts about the conditions and care of various CPs in previous #cpclubthursday so I recommend people follow the hashtag, may of them also have my own group #seymour so may be easier to find there.

So here’s a great way to look at growing CPs that seems to be a great way as with most hydroponics, you need to add nutrients to the water but with CPs they prefer a nutrient free medium to grow in (hence eg peat moss/perlite or pure sphagnum moss!) This guy is a great resource for anyone growing Nepenthes indoors (hence the Windowsill Nepenthes) and Remy is based in Canada (from France hence French accent!). So I have been watching his LetPot hydroponic videos and he just released his latest update. Here’s the video and it’s fairly short (6.5 minutes): https:// It’s similar to other brands like Aerogarden (did they go out of business recently !?!) in using plugs into a water reservoir and grow lights. Anyway share if you have tried this hydroponic system for your own CPs or similar or planning to give it a go! Oh and Remy has a nice simple Nepenthes growing guide on Amazon (only 42 pages): Pitcher Plants Beginner Guide: Easily grow these carnivorous plants on your windowsill, choose the right species, understand their needs, and keep them healthy and pitchering. https:// I have seen some great CPs being shared by #cpclubthursday these week so thanks for including the hashtag to alert other members to your posts!

I did not think she would grow so big in almost 2 months!
