Hi Markjacob and others that are interested,
Thanks for your interest in trying to strike Nepenthes with honey. It is amazing that I asked an almost identical question earlier. For a start I thought it was me that wrote your question.
At
https://forum.petpitcher.net/showthread.php?t=3301 I asked
"On another note, has anyone found that honey is good to strike Nepenthes cuttings? I asked about this a while back."
On an earlier thread at
https://forum.petpitcher.net/showthread.php?t=3029 I asked
"I have read and heard that some cuttings can be struck by using honey as a root hormone by rubbing a small amount of it on the node where the roots would grow from. See
http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf23099231.tip.html
Could this work for Nepenthes?"
I had some feedback about this on the above links. However, I have not found anyone who tried honey for Nepenthes yet. However, a few days ago I tried it on some of my Nepenthes Alata cuttings. I will let you know how it goes.
I also posted the question at
http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/lofiv...hp/t34654.html a while back and received some feedback.
Also, please see my recent question where I ask how much the potting mix should be compacted for Nepenthes. The answers could help us save potting mix. See
https://forum.petpitcher.net/showthre...5627#post25627 .
Robert, I would be interested to know how much you compact your sphagnum moss for the Nepenthes cuttings.
Your help is appreciated
Regards Richard.
