yup, i got one nepenthes seeds germinated so far, it come in 80seeds of mix nepenthes, but strangely, it is its roots that were sprout first..i wonder what is it...
rhealk, you got a lot vft seedlings now?me got 20 now...haha

[Angkau Tekor]

Mine still no germinations.

[rhealk]

Angkau 'Telur' (hahaha, just joking), what's your setup?
Mine also 0 germination on nep.
The sundews... it was a MISTAKE to purchase so many seeds. They're germinating like weeds now.

[allenphoon]

bro..what you mean...i had sow almost 2000+seeds....now what i can see is whole path of green stuff.....haha

[allenphoon]

PM some interesting offer......

[rhealk]

Haha, I mean they can grow very fast and start to produce new plants fast too. That's what happening to those sundews (adult plants) I purchased last time. One become 2 and these continue to multiple and multiple.
So this time I purchased 100 seeds of sundews of a single type and if even half germinated, guess what happen when they matured and start to multiple? They will be like weeds. Its good for those who are selling but for hobbyist, duh, I have to keep cracking head where to put them! And that's why I say I should not purchase soooo much seeds last time.

Hi rhealk,

I actually seperate the seeds into 2 containers and place one outdoor but at shaded area. The other i put inside an aquarium and place it in my room. Turn on the light from 9am to 8pm. From 10pm to 8am aircond on with setting at 23 degree. Mine are HL nep seeds so i reckon the conditions are conducive for them but so far still no germination. Maybe it's still too early to tell so i'll just give it a little more time and see how it goes.

[rhealk]

I see. Hope yours will germinate soon.
Just now I check mine, fungus kept invading them, I think mostly come from the sphagnum moss. Sien. @@ Already spray fungicide but still kena. Looks messy

dip the media in boiling water and then flush them under clean water (RO or distil water) , after u sow the seed, cover them and leave small gap. I am doing this all the while to minimise the mold, some time no mold at all,
