How do some seedlings look like
Hi everyone
Just asking if anyone 1 of you have germinated nep seeds which look like a maybe 0.5cm hairy stem coming out and 2 leaves which is not "smooth" in shape? I mean when a nep seedling just germinated they will come out with 2 nice teardrop kind of leaf right? But recently i germinated some not sure ID nep seeds most of them turn black probally 90% there a just a few which didn't turn black...So now i realised there is 2 seedlings there which i don't know if its a nep seedling or a weed...It has a short stem sticking out which normally nep seedlings dont.The leaves are wringkly teardrop shaped and the stem is hairy soo i'm not sure if its a weed... Ken

Hi Ali
When the first start as a seedling the first thing they produce is 2 leaves without pitchers or whatsoever.. Ken

Re: How do some seedlings look like
i'm growing N.mirabilis seed and the seedlings do not have hairy stem,just a very short stem with 2 small leaf bout 2mm each.The 1st pitcher is also very small without its tendril and the lid is a bit hairy (like N.tentaculata)
