Default Re: what's wrong of my Pinguicula...???

I think the media for Pings can be wet, at least that is how I grow mine... in a water tray. But like Drosera they like some air flow. If the grow area is totally covered with no air flow, they do not grow well and will be pron to fungus attact. for my Pings I realised they do not need the intense light that Drosera or VFTs need. They seem to do better in lower light levels. In higher light levels, they seem to "melt" or rot. I think it might be the heat from the intense light. They like it cooler as well.
