Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

I realy want to have a sarracenia leucophylla. . . . :crying:
And I am still a newbie at neps........so I think its easier to start with cuttings....but I dont have cuttings:crying:

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

So far, leucophylla is quite rare in Malaysia. A few members have it, but I haven't gotten seeds or a leucophylla plant before.

Nep cuttings are hard for me........wonder how you guys do it. Do you leave the cutting in a solution of diluted rooting hormone??

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

That makes me even more wanting to own a s.leucophylla. . . T.T

Uncle kc u got extra one to spare?:crying:

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

Edward, Its quite easy to make cuttings...What i do is i cut a portion of the plant with myabe 2/3 nodes or something and chuck it into moss and see if it grows thats all....Some does some doesn't..

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

i think it will be better if you direct put them in water, wait until rooting, then only you transplant, but usually i left them in water for forever....:laugh: juz like my N.gracilis

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

if you fail in ventrata cutting, then you must not try on other neps... you shud get >90% survival rate on ventrata if you do it correctly.

Anyone in Pg can get ventrata cutting from me...

You can open the cover slowly and expose it to more sunlight slowly as well. Please protect those plant from rain... Else, you may spent hours to find it... ;)

edward, you never try propagate nepenthes by stem cutting? Must try. For me, it is better propagate more then 1 plant... In case... opppsss... touch wood!!!*biggrin2*

In my case, im make sure each cutting have 2 nodes.

Re: Newbie testing section (FOC)

2/3 meaning 2 or 3 nodes :)
