Light for Nepenthes cuttings.
Hi
For Nepenthes cuttings grown in a ventilated terrarium, do you think just the Solarweave white plastic that blocks out 50% light and sun would be enough or do you suggest that I also have a 70% shade cloth in addition to that? I plan to grow the cuttings in a terrarium made from a fish tank. It will have water below the level of the pots to provide humidity and it will have about half an inch gap at the top for ventilation. The pots will sit on a shelf above about 2 inches of water. As the plants are not sitting in the water I may have to water them every couple of weeks from the top.
I live in the tropics on the Atherton Tableland's at 757 meters altitude near Cairns.
Your help is appreciated,
Regards Richard.
