Default Re: Growing highland nepenthes

thanks ifurita, for your input. personally, i think the osim mister will not be able to produce enough mist and they spoil easily. i got one before, not osim though, and it spoiled in 3-4 months. try the ones sold at the swiftlet rearing shops, they are big, you can have piped-in water so no need to refil and they last long. about 400rm, i think. but they take up space. i am thinking of big planter boxes so the plants can all be thrown in, less space consuming.

light-wise, i am not sure if it will be bright enough as i can only tell when it is built (right now, it is non-existent!). the other fear is due to this being an enclosed space, too much sun will fry them up! whatever it is, i will post it up here so we can all learn from it.

if you guys remember the small office terranium i have, right now i have rajah, diatas, spectabilis, eymae and spathulata and some other HL there. they actually are growing new leaves, but no real pitchers yet. the good thing is that the humidity is high inside the terranium. so, they like it, i guess.

robert, you really want to live in a 8 x 8ft room, with all the space you have now??.
