Re: Nepenthes cuttings.
I am under the impression that species that have very short internodes do not do well as cuttings, has anyone noticed this? Veitchii for example? Truncata, etc. Though for Truncata a friend of mine has done cutting sucesfully, I just have no guts to try it out.
No one commented about the bleach thing, I guess no one amongst us actually did consider disinfecting, well specially if you are going to stick it in potting mix that will be full of microorganisms anyway. Isoprophyl Alcohol is another alternative to bleach, another is hydrogen peroxide... but to clarify, I do not know if any will help or kill the cutting.
