Re: Sanguinea solutions needed.
Not sure whats wrong with yours, my two pitcher for me nonstop.
ive grown them in various mixes ranging from the basic peat/perlite to peat/perlite/sand/lfs/orchid bark/osmunda fiber. its a matter of preference with this species, what do you mean by the dry the damp/wet ratios? everything should be kept damp to near wet! |

Re: Sanguinea solutions needed.
1st, where did you place your N sanguinea, I mean your growing condition?
2nd, what media are you using? Me too not quite understand of the wet-dry thing, can you explain it further. |

I don't think the media should be kept too wet, otherwise the roots will rot. Just try upping humidity. A good trick for this in a lowland area like Shah Alam is to surround the sanguinea with other plants like ferns or other CPs.

Re: Sanguinea solutions needed.
Well you obviously dont want to keep it soaking, but damp to somewhat wet doesnt hurt, my plants react better to that than keeping them on the dry side...
though i have let my plants go near dry between waterings (when i grew indoors) now that everything is in the greenhouse, they get watered quite often from being misted down. |
