Stefan Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Great pics, I really love the stem covered in moss and nepenthes ;) The first pictures of your last post looks like muluensis to me. ("Nepenthes sp. gunung murud") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzysio Posted April 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Thanks Vincenzo, Thanks Stefan,This nepenthes was bought from BCP as:N. murudensis or maybe hybrid with tentaculata? (Church Camp, Gunung Murud, Borneo, Malaysia), after a year the BCP changed its name to Nepenthes spec. {Black hybrid with tentaculata-murudensis? or new species} - I will have a good comparison when my muluensis will be bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzysio Posted May 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 I have no idea, but it looks interesting on the pitcher, sometimes mushrooms grow in my terrariums, but generally only on the live Sphagnum mosses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombennet Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I love the peristome on your N. Miranda. Stunning photos as always, thanks for sharing. What conditions do you grow your N. ventricosa x hamata hybrid in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzysio Posted May 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Thanks Tom, N. ventricosa x hamata is growing in my highland phitotron. Air conditioning is set: day temp 22, night 15; but inside the terrariums in the day the temperature can be higher (from fluorescent lamps) - can be up to 23-24.

Krzysio Posted June 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 As an artificial lighting mainly I use the fluorescent Silvania Grolux In the terrariums I use 4x54W Sylvania Grolux and 2 x LED SKYLIGHT BASIC lamps 9W - 950 lm - I have four terrariums (4x234W=936W) On the bookstands for plant cultivation in fitotrons (or phytotrons) I have 6x39W Sylvania Grolux on each shelf - a total of 16 such shelves (3744W). In the greenhouse I have sodium lamps 10 x 400W (4000W). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The terrariums are gravitational ventilation, I do not use any fans. In the greenhouse I have computer control of ventilation windows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinal Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 wow..!I want to ask one more thing.. ^^ what is gravitational ventilation? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzysio Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Gravitational ventilation (called natural ventilation) is the process of supplying air to and removing air from an indoor space without using mechanical systems. It refers to the flow of external air to an indoor space as a result of pressure differences (temperature).

cardinal Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 When you are cultivating nepenthes, are there differences between the live sphagnum moss and a mix of coco chips, pumice, perlite that are used as soil?

Krzysio Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) Both substrates work very well, their use depends on species preference and plant growing conditions - mainly on the way and intensity of watering. In my greenhouse Nepenthes better are growon in the mix for epiphytes (the substrate with organic and mineral components), it offers very stable conditions, and is significantly more fertile than that of alive Sphagnum moss. The substrate of alive Sphagnum moss is very poor in nutrients, because most of the available nutrients take sphagnum mosses and with time tends to become too compact and retain too much water. Species that require constant very high humidity of the substrate (wet substrate) I cultivate in the living Sphagnum.

Krzysio Posted June 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 eg N. campanulata, N. chaniana, N. ephippiata and N. hirsuta - need a wet substrate that can not dry out – these are best grown in living Sphagnum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
