All of my pinguicula are getting so big! Might have to repot soon. Two of them are still blooming like crazy! I love them so much! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #BeforeAndAfter #PlantLove #TropicalPlants #ThanksForPhotosynthesis #QuickGrowingPlants #Pinguicula #Butterwort

Oh lovely! I love pings but I can’t figure them out, I’ve killed quite a few of them 😂 I might try them again next year
@Peachyhoyas Thank you! aw, dang! I’m sorry about that! Here’s some info that I hope helps! I have mine under a barrina T5 grow lights, in an ikea greenhouse cabinet that’s kept at 70-90% humidity. I also put them in sphagnum peat moss for substrate and I use distilled water that the pots always sit it. I use a second little cup(the square white “pots”) to put the original pot into so it can hold the water. I got mine at Walmart for like 3 dollars each. For nutrition they’re always catching and eating the fungus gnats in my cabinet but I heard you can supplement with fish flakes though I’ve never tried it🤷 I hope this info helps!
@BogBody thank you for the advice! I think some of my problems was swamping them too much and also buying the wrong dirt despite it being labelled as carnivorous dirt. I may give them another go if I can find some stores that have more established ones. Them catching the fungus gnats is a big plus
@Peachyhoyas yeah! No problem! I wish you luck for sure!!
