Here are my Hydnophytum papuanum and simplex!
I find that they do really well in clay pots.

Glass beads

Throughout the while pot or just the surface?

 

[WillyCKH]

Im trying to grow them in 100% glass beads

 

[Will20013]

cool! are you like misting them with a complete nutrient solution?

 

[WillyCKH]

Not yet, I've just finished potting them so I want to wait a week or two before applying fertilizer. I think I'll be using maxsea for them like Josh does.

 

[jeff]

what is max sea ? what NPK ?

strange substrate , but why not .

do not forget that these plants are mostly epiphytes growing on tree trunks

 

[WillyCKH]

Maxsea is made from seaweed, it's what I use for carnivorous plants too. 16-16-16
