some cutting and rooting
Hello friends.
A few weeks ago on Saturday. (There is a starting date 30/05/09) me and another member of the community tried to do some cutting and rooting for
Nepenthes x Rebecca in several different beddings.
for those of you Who did not see "Rebecca" I add a picture.
I am sure it has already seen many times, But despite this I thought to share.
Left to right:
1. Water: According to this method, we need to replace the water once a week.
2. Perlite and water: also by this method we need to replace the water once a week initially. Then a plastic cup with holes, filled with Perlite on a plate full of water at the bottom.
3. The latest method Is a method that I already used in the past. I already managed successfully to do some cutting and rooting for two Nepenthes x ventrata.
This is basically a mixture of Perlite and Peat flooded with water.
in This method we do not need to replace the water, just to add when missing.
The first picture on 14/06/09
Another picture on 20/06/09
Another picture on 27/06/09
Another picture on 04/07/09
last picture on 11/07/09
Conclusion.
In the first picture we can see the plant that was in the water.
Though He grew up very well (maybe even most relatively). There is no root that we can see with the eyes.
The second picture we can see the plant that was in Perlite.
He also grew very well, but he is the only one that we can see the root with our eyes.
Finally in the third picture we can see the plant that was in a mixture of Perlite and Peat flooded with water.
also There is no root that we can see.
Everyone grew up beautiful.
But the plant with the Perlite has developed the best system of roots.
It was nice.
And now I'm planting them in a proper
bedding and Wait.
Thank's everyone for your patience.
