hi allen, how lucky you are ：）

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

why? now i was scaring it will die...see my last post....

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

i mean you are so lucky to have 2 form of amp with very cjeap prices.

why you want to out the plant inside the bathroom? that bath room not use by your family member? i don't think the light source enought for the plant.

let's see what the expect suggest.

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Hylau- i was putting it inside the bathroom because when i saw the plant's leaf curled like that, i was worried that it will die, so i put them inside the bathroom at night...Other two pots were saved, but the one above i scare it cannot make it, because it leaves did not recover and all of its pitcher seems to become yellow in colour, all of it pitcher look dry out already.....

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Did you pull out their roots while repoting it? It looks dehydrated

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Don't put it in the bathroom. Make sure the media is not soaking wet, then put the plant inside a plastic bag with some holes. Then put the plant somewhere away from direct sunlight, but not shades.

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

what different between putting it in the plastic and bathroom? Both of it also have high humidity?
Now, what i gave it was indirect sunlight and every night it will spent their night in the bathroom....Media was using sphagnum moss....One of the forumer told me that they can tolerate with that....but still not sure...

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Looks like root rot ,and or dehydrated :crying:

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

hmm.....i cant use pure sphagnum moss as media...is it?

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Newly purchased plant often suffered from stress and dehydration while potting into new medium. A well drain medium like 60% sphagnum moss/ 40% perlite and keep in cool shade, water only when the media look dry. It will take approx.,3 weeks for the plant to bounce back. But it depend very much on your surrounding and you have to monitor it everyday.

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

oh....but me just got sphagnum moss only....really need to change?

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

sphagnum moss alone will be fine just that it should not be over watered. The roots need to breath, else will lead to root rot. If the sphag. moss was too wet take them n the amp out squeezed the excess water out of the sp.moss then pot back.

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

BAthroom has low light levels that can lead to rot....They can tolerate sphag moss but only water every two days...cut the leaves into half and cover it with and plastic bag and poke holes on it like edward says. Hope your ampularia survives

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

hmm....i saw so many solutions...choose the best one and try not to shock the plant by replanting, shifting etc etc etc or else neps god also fail to help....:crying: they are prone to die of shock!

Re: Hey N. ampullaria
 

Okay...will try the plastic one....going to squeeze the water tomorrow...hope it can survive..now one of it leaves had turned yellow....haizz
