Default Re: Whats wrong with my ventricosa?

This is just a suggestion. Try soaking the whole plant underwater for a few hours, if those things are alive, hopefully they will drown in a few hourse of soaking. Our neps can take a few hours of being fully underwater. Try this several time if possible and see if the small things start decreasing. Another alterative is to do the dish washing soap method, for me it's the dish washing spoap sud method. Apply dish washing soap foam on or under the leaves where the organisms are, wait a few minutes maybe 10 mins. and then rinse. Do again as necessary.

I've soaked a whole ventricosa because of mealy worms on it's roots, and used soap sud method on drosera flowerstalks and leaves of chili plants.
