Thanks for the feedback guys. This is intended as a guide and you are welcome to try it. I have grown Sarra succesfully in temperate areas of Australia where the daytime temp is low 20's and overnight Temp's drop to 0 and there is a frost. The plants are not effected negatively by this. Generally the drop in temp will only be a problem to existing traps. These are accustomed to certain temps and the drop in temp can lead to tissue damage. As these are removed you don't have to worry about that. The rhizome is a very tough structure that will not be adversely effected by this treatment. I would advise you to experiment with one of your plants and see how it goes. Remember nothing ventured nothing gained.

In regards to the seed you do not need to acclimatize these. Mine go straight from the fridge into the glass house. Whilst I am not in the tropics here the temps at sowing are usually around the mid 20's and I get good germination.

As for my potting mix, I use 50:50 peat and coarse sand. I hope you try the method out i am sure you wont be disapointed. Cheers.
