dongliang_l Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 hey jan, what sort of temperature did you keep them in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanW Posted July 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 Hi, it's summer here in Germany and in my terrarium the temperatures are about 25°C ~ 80°F (298,14 K ;) ) and the humidity is around 50-60%. I plan on grow them 'hard', so I don't care about more humidity. Plants are much more foregiving as most people think, just try not to stress them and don't change the conditions too fast. I would recommend some fertilization for your seedling! I use Osmocote. Good growing, Jan P.S. Nice plants on the pictures on your homepage!

dongliang_l Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 hey all, could you guys check if this is a nep seedling coz it's the only one that came out out of more than 100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanW Posted July 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 That one is looking good! Seems to be a nepenthes to me. Did you throw the other seeds away? Or are they still lying around? If yes, just wait. Perhaps some will germinate later. Good growing, Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dongliang_l Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 hey jan, i had them in two trays one of pure s.moss other in pure peat, the ones in the peat i threw away as some had white fungus growing on them and the s.moss i abandon on my windowsil, just checked and i see 2 seedlings that doesn't look like weeds, hopefully they'll be ok once i've moved them in the the hot propagator. Wish me luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanW Posted July 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2003 Yes I wish you good look and in addition I give you the advice to fertilize them. If they get yellow, it is the last chance! Use slow-release fertilizer like Osmocote (5 pearls per small pot) or a diluted leaf fertiziler. Good growing, Jan P.S. Now I have N.alata, N.ampullaria and Nepenthes [maxima x (maxima x northiana)] x (maxima x northiana) grown from seeds. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
