Default Re: Burnt earth as media

Great growing Isaac!

I have got very good success with LFS/perlite for N. campanulata but I find that during less than ideal conditions i.e. hot and dry season, the species doesn't do as well as when it is potted in burnt earth. The minerals available does give the species an edge over grown in LFS.

This is the largest pitcher I got from N. campanulata in LFS/perlite.
