#carnivorousplants

0 posts0 participants0 posts today
DeeAnn Little<p>Checking in on the bog that I replanted on the 16th with a digital magnifier to see how it is settling in. Seems like it's doing okay (most sundew traps are progressing except for a couple and the Venus Flytrap seeds seem to have set). Some moss has burnt tips like it did in the old container and not sure if it's the lighting, dry conditions or something else yet. </p><p>Post of the actual planting at <a href="https://layer8.space/@chillicampari/114173052110800527" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">layer8.space/@chillicampari/11</span><span class="invisible">4173052110800527</span></a></p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/CarnivorousPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarnivorousPlants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/florespondence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>florespondence</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>
DeeAnn Little<p>Packing away the winter greenhouses and acclimating some of the outdoor plants to springlike weather fully outdoors (Zone 7b). We still have some freezes so I kept the protection fabric out and will cover them at night (and they will probably be moving inside at times as needed). The thin white frost cover doubles as a sun shade for the afternoon. I'm leaving the dead traps on until I divide/repot which should hopefully be next week. </p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/CarnivorousPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarnivorousPlants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>

DeeAnn Little<p>Whew! I knew this was going to be a tricky replanting and it was but went more smoothly than I'd expected. This mini bog started out in 2023 as a random throwing things together with different Sundew seed stalks, moss and some Butterworts in a Tupperware-type container using coconut coir as the growing medium and I actually didn't expect it to survive. It seemed to (mostly) do okay and it was time to move it to a larger container. </p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/CarnivorousPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarnivorousPlants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>
DeeAnn Little<p>Preparing the container and materials for moving the Tupperware Bog experiment. I am still rehydrating some carnivorous plant earth and sphagnum moss I'd let dry and stored away. Hopefully on Sunday I can put it all together.</p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/carnivorousplants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>carnivorousplants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/florespondence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>florespondence</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>
DeeAnn Little<p>I'm preparing another batch of growing medium (mix of peat and perlite). If you are new to growing carnivores, you might not know yet that the medium should be soaked and rinsed before planting. If you plant in dry medium and then water it, it may repel the water (see pic 3 where it is floating on top of the water). I'm using one of <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mfeilner" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mfeilner</span></a></span> 's fermentation jars and periodically shaking it, breaking up barky chunks and letting it set in a warm room. </p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/CarnivorousPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarnivorousPlants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>
DeeAnn Little<p>Cleaned up and moved the dormant Drosera paradoxa (sundew) into a new pot. It's in an open glass container until the ambient humidity in this room goes up. This one came out of dormancy mid going into late March last year (see link at <a href="https://layer8.space/@chillicampari/112169585969118118" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">layer8.space/@chillicampari/11</span><span class="invisible">2169585969118118</span></a>), but it can vary. As I am doing with a few other plants, I top dressed it with chopped fresh sphagnum moss that I keep in a jar. <br> </p><p><a href="https://layer8.space/tags/CarnivorousPlants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarnivorousPlants</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/SavageGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SavageGarden</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/florespondence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>florespondence</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Mosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mosstodon</span></a> <a href="https://layer8.space/tags/Plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Plants</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span></p>

For this year's winter dormancy of the temperate carnivorous plants (zone 7b) I am trying a balcony setup with portable greenhouses. The left one is packed with mulch under the netting. I've done it indoors before in an unheated storage room with wintering lights, but there isn't enough space this year. I'll probably modify this as I go along and I need to find a better anchoring system than the bungee cords.

Two plant greenhouses on a balcony overlooking a river. Inside are carnivorous plants.

Open view of the plant bed. There are two Sarracenias, multiple Venus Flytraps and a Californica Darlingtonia in the background.
