hi
wanna know what to do after plantlets growed out.....
when to repot them
I just cut the leafs of one i grew from seed and put on top of a soil mix i made and saw a nub pop after 2 weeks after 1 month its about 1/4 tall and another nub has popped up.
Thanks for good video. Did you seal the container with also transparent cover? I wanna try this method with plastic cup but there is only colored cover which block the sun light..
I like this old jazz intro!
Hi! When you transfer these germinated leaf cuttings, do you place them in a pot medium with holes at the bottom, inside a ziplock?
Btw do you have Solanum capsicastrum in your collection? I see that some ppl grow it as bonsai.
do you change distill water from time to time during propagate stage? thanks
I was walking along a mountain stream today and saw along the bank of the stream these gorgeous grassy plant with al sorts of colors on its stem and thick crude black hairlike "hair". then to my amazement, I saw tiny flies on its surface and realized it was a hunter plant.mmmmm. I decided to plant it again as they are very vulnerable and need extra care which I am not prepare to do. Tough grasses was my intent. amazing stuff. I want to know if this sort of propagating can be done with any plant's leave?
Your collection is amazing. I'm glad I found your channel by chance , searching for Carnivorous plants on youtube. Subbed :)
mine have been going for about a week and a half and one end is going dark, is this a good sign?
Yea ...that's what I thought too :( . Anyway , any new plants you are thinking to buy anytime soon? I plan to get Rajah and get those huge pitches in few years.
Hey *****
i have been growing some cape sundew leaf cuttings inside some of my water trays and in small clear containers on my back patio; now that i have said that, i must note that the ones in water trays for some of my other plants have a bunch of nice little rosettes grown while the other ones inside clear containers are just kinda--there. So my question is: since the cuttings in the dirty water have a bunch of rosettes, some that have a bunch of their own tentacles all ready, how will i know when to transplant them into their own little pots? I was told that i should do so once i start to see little roots growing out of the bottom of the leaf cuttings, which would be opposite of where the rosettes are growing. But as we are going into week 6, i have yet to see any roots growing at all. I live in western Washington State, and both groups of test subjects are on south facing patio.
Oh, one more question, could you tell me why the clippings that are inside of the dirty water trays for my other plants is doing so much better than my clippings that are in their individual containers with--clean--water?
Does this method work on Dionaeas?
How do you plant the cuttings?!
Awesome ! looking forward. Btw the way , can you use the orchid soil for nepenthes? As far as I know this 2 plants live in the same place . So is that ok?
Yes! Orchid soil/moss is usually untreated Long Fibered Sphagnum moss. It's what all of my nepenthes are planted and happy in, and it's the best substrate for them :)
What's next? After the water to putting it in soil?x
I'm afraid I don't know. I just take pullings from them and lay them on moss.
On the Capensis on you have there in the glass bowl, do you cut the plantlet off the main leaf with scissors and then plant that?
I was reading you can do both tear and cut
would this work for a venus fly trap ?
Is that capensis or adelae sundew?
How long does it take before you start to see any growth?
Really depends i dropped a cutting in my soil mix and saw a nub in about two weeks.
that's where i went wrong with the tracyii-i just planted the plantlets into the peat and they dried up pretty quickly. next year I'll do better
I'm failing to find any perlite or peat moss, can you just use spagnum long fibered moss? Plantlets are already growing out of three different leaves and and I got my drosera around 4 days ago. It's my first one and I don't really know how to deal with more than one... also what stores sell peat moss and perlite that's uninriched with miracle grow?
Yes you can used long fibered sphagnum moss
Is it necessary to cut them into little pieces?
*smaller pieces
which section of the leaves can we cut and grow this way? top,middle,bottom? also, how do we know when to take them out?
Any part of the leaf that has the little red tentacles will grow plantlets. I would say take them out when they are tall enough to not get buried by whatever medium you're putting them in. I recently potted some that are about the size seen in Brad's video, and they are doing fine.
To easy to propagate..
*Too
when your ready to plant it in soil, do you cut the old leaf off or plant it in with the old leaf in?
Naa, i leave it attached and plant them in very very water logged soil.
ok thanks
I got tons of S. Capsicastrum . I planted some seeds and got so many of them that I don't have any idea what to do with them . Not many plant enthusiasts near me to give them away .... I could send you one if you need but it would cost way to much for the shipping.
I’ve been trying to propagate my drosera spatulata for two months now. The leaf has still not produced any plantlets. Have you ever tried flower stem propogation?
It took several months to start growing new plantlets for me. I put drosera filiformis clippings in a closed plastic water bottle with distilled water and floated it in my fishtank which had a light on a timer over it. Seemed to take forever but once the little bumps showed up on the stems, the growth was faster. Waiting til this happens is the hardest part. Good luck with your plants. 🌱
Did you use tap or distilled water?
said distilled in video
How long does it take before you can see results ??
Video said "a few months". HTH :)
It's two weeks
Sono semplicemente immerse in acqua?
thank you very much! *is excited * (^_^)
Are the leaves floating in rain water please?

the commercial growers just throw a load of cuttings into a pot, I have just bought a D.Capensis pot of plants for £4.00 GBP here in the uk after separating them into individual growing pots I had 24 viable plants. the diy bog will have to get bigger for 2018.
