@WillyCKH puts zip ties around those clamps and the lights as a safety precaution. You don't want them falling on the plants!

Yes, zip ties are good idea for securing the lights! You don't want them falling on the plants.

Will do! Honestly never thought of it haha.

Drosera tokaiensis germinated...

 

[DevonNS]

Variegation came out finally on my Philodendron paraiso verde cuttings. I bought the mother plant back in October, been not so patiently waiting for the summer leaves

Winter leaf.

New summer/ warm temperature leaf, mind the Alocasia frydek, old leaf dying off haha.

First part of the plant shipment that arrived early this evening potted up!
Grabbing supper before moving onto the others....

Random 4 pack of flytraps, very happy with the selection.
I'll move them outside in a couple weeks to lessen the shock haha.

If you're going to move them outside, might be better to get some early morning sun first as the solstice is coming soon.

Good idea, in the past I used overcast/cloudy days to give a soft start to hardening off... Would it be best to throw them outside for a little tomorrow morning vs keeping them in the tropical set up currently?

 

[DevonNS]

Rest of the order all done.

After years of debating I did indeed buy a D. lanata....lol

Pinguicula Mehitable

The freebie N. ampullaria x is very lovely as well.

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

I would start some early morning sun now and ramp it up slowly, keeping a close eye on the plant.

Temperate plants moved outside to start the process..

 

[DevonNS]

Normally I've had plants go into shock for about a week after shipping lol.
Glad to say the new set up seems to be working well, dew came back yesterday.

 

[DevonNS]

D.binata seedling update, they appear to be growing well.

The moss I grabbed during the early spring is also steadily spreading.

 

[DevonNS]

Little impulse buy at the greenhouse today, "60x-100x" micro lens with a phone clip for $20.
I'm not the most steady, but not terrible focus from it.

Pinguicula

D.aliciae and D.lanata

Moss. I should try to I.D it now.

New pitcher on the rob x veitchii

 

[DevonNS]

About 20 days after germination for the D.tokaiensis, tomorrow I'll gently remove the green slime lol.

The D.binata did a big jump as well.
How large should they get before I separate them? I fear damaging the roots.

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

The smaller and less crowded, the better to separate them. Just be gentle and you should be fine.
If you want to play with the tokaiensis, take a teensy (almost invisible) green bit and put it on the medium. You will get a new plant.

 

[DevonNS]

Should buy a little more time, I also ordered 72 more pots lol.

 

[DevonNS]

Rough set up of the second chamber done. Turns out the lights in the upper chamber are pretty weak after years of use.
I'll aim to replace those in a couple weeks. New light is a Spiderfarmer sf1000.

Before

After.

I know the ping needs more appropriate soil lol...

 

[DevonNS]

D.tokaiensis update and transfer to a better soil mix/room to grow out.
