I also have Sauromatum venosum but it always seems to start growing much later then other peoples in the uk! Does it need a period of dry, cool or heat to get it into growth? I also have Typhonium giganteum that I have the same troube with, Ive been told that this one is a little hardier than S.Venosum, but it also comes into growth rather late for me tho? I am still very new to aroids so I’d like to learn as much as can! I also have Sauromatum venosum but it always seems to start growing much later then other peoples in the uk!

Ok this is very interesting as I know very little in this sort of field; I can grow plants and look after live stock but this sort of thing just baffles but interreges me! Can suggest what I could do be it LED or halogens in the size of area I mentioned? Also what would be cheapest to run?

Interesting, the area im thinking of using it in is 5ft wide, 8ft long and about 6ft high, its a mini polytunnle in my heated polytunnle. lol I was thinking would a few bulbs on the top of the frame pointing down? these where the bulbs i was thinking of E27 38 LEDs 2W Plant Grow Growth Light< any thoughts or suggestions?

I’m looking into some LED grow lights for my Highland Nepenthes and my cool growing orchids that I keep with them. I’m trying find some info on what grow lights I need for them but cant find much, I will have the lights on a timer for the day time. Can you suggest what to look into and what are really good for the plants I want to grow? Thank you Michael

I'm looking into making more space for me sarracenias so I'm looking at pollytunnles or glasshouses/greenhouses, but not sure what to go with! The size I'm thinking of is about 60ft by 20ft or so, it's a big investment so I want to get all the info I can! I know polytunnels are ok and that's where I keep my sarracenias at the moment but I know glasshouses are cheeper (in the long run!) but not as strong in HIGH winds compared to polytunnels. What do you think? I know a few polytunnle sites but could you give me some sites for cheep ish glasshouses or even second hand Dutch style ones. Thank you anyway Michael!
