Drosera and Nepenthes documentary download

[arvin555]

Hi,

Whoever seeded the Drosera Torrent, I would like to thank you, I was able to download it already. I hope that someone does seed the Nepenthes torrent though, as there is no movement in that.

To pass it forward, I will be seeding the drosera torrent at mininova until for maybe 1 or two people or if there is no interest after a month.

I do hope that someone can seed the Nepenthes documentary though.

ps. this is a legitimate free documentary download so please do not hesitate to download if interested.

Hi Arvin555

I just finished downloading "drosera.documentary.carnivorous.plants.fs.dvdrip. xvid-huntingveggies.avi" from DVD drip. It is a flim by the (I think) German/Austrian guys having to do with what they have named 'snap tenticles' and has a lot of magnified views showing their 'new' discoveries about Drosera. I've only watched the first 10 minutes or so but I'd say it's worth downloading. If you have trouble finding it let me know.

I just found a place that you can download the DVD direct from the makers for free! I finished watching it this afternoon and can recommend it. Some great macro and USB micro photography/video work and a thorough explanation of 'snap tentacles', their mechanics, evolution and later geographic distribution. As a bonus, at the end there's a little bit of another DVD they did at Rob Cantley's Borneo Exotics.
Here's the link;

Shawn, thanks for the info, I actually was able to download the drosera documentary too, did you download it using Mininova? I think we were downloading it at the same time, again thanks to the one that "seeded" it.

However I am having problems with the Nepenthes documentary, I visited the website that you mentioned but can't find any link to a free download for the Nepenthes documentary, can you please post the exact URL?

There is also the Borneo exotic one, but I'll download it next time I'm hoping to watch the Nepenthes one first.

Oh and yes I enjoyed the drosera Snap tentacle documentary, specially coz I have a D. Spatulata and trying to germinate D. Burmanii.

Hi Arvin,

Yep, unfortunately they are only 'giving away' the two programs, the rest are 'for sale'. I wasn't able to download the "Nepenthes @ Borneo Exotics" as the link appears to be dead. I haven't had time to do another Torrent search to see if it's available elsewhere yet. If I do find it I'll post it here.

The 'snap tentacles and runway lights' film was quite informative. Amazing that no one noticed/published that information until now! How about the 'bugs eye view' of the yellow balls and the disappearing red leaves! Hmmm, do we have a category on the forum for 'films/media'? Seems I remember one somewhere.

Shawn, I think that at the end you and I were "feeding" each other the torrent, but someone from the US or something was the seeder for the drosera. Again anyone interested I am keeping my torrent alive so that anyone can download with me being the seeder. Maybe shawn can also seed if you post here

Shawn please try http://www.bt-chat.com/details.php?id=24906
This should point you to the nepenthes torrent, I have it going now but no seeders, maybe if there are two seeders that it might work, but not sure. Please try though and we'll see. I used the BT one, though I think I have a mininova torrent of the same file as well.
