Had one outside, she was fed tap water here in SoCal and no other special care. She lived 7 years till a 115 °F heat wave killed her whilst I was out of town.
I'm so excited I just ordered mine (size M for $18 lol, but I don't live in USA). I got a mini greenhouse and LED lights for it since I don't have a grow tent 🥺 let's hope it works!!! Thanks for the tips on how to care for it
I keep them standing in a pan of shallow water (about 1/2 inch of water) and keep that on the heat mat with the tent zipped shut. They will eventually acclimate to lower humidity levels and this will be enough for them.
challenge yourself bro. The meaning of life is to become God, so you need to push yourself to every limit possible every day. Then when you finally have driven yourself to know everything you will know how to fix all the problems in your life. Become a nursery owner, an artist, a scientist, and a horse trainer all at once while studying the esoteric mysteries on the side. Also you should do all of this while smoking marijuana every day, imagine what kind of challenge that is. Then we can talk about getting six pack abs. You are going to have to become the perfect human to escape the matrix brother.

They seemed to put on better growth when I had them under white light. I did however have the humidity really high in my previous set up though, basically a large closed “chameleon cantina” terrarium
Oh wow I never thought of using a heat mat for my neps. Great idea I'll have to try it.

I bought a mini humidifier
2:32 bruv nepenthes are vines lol
Wow that bical has a big stock! how long have you had it? Thanks
I bought it sometime in 2017. I remember it was while I worked at a forest preserve but I can’t remember where I even ordered it from.
How you solve a high humidity problem? I don't see any humifider inside. I would be appreciate because I want to copy Your Growbox idea:)

approximately what will be the cost of a specimen like that? ty
No idea. I have only ever bought small/medium bicals for around $50-70 USD
Love your CP videos!
I appreciate the effort, this is just way too much setup for a nep for me though. I'll stick to my basic $5 ventratas I guess

N. bicalcarata grows very fast. Do you cut it to obtain cutting ? If yes, were do you cut it ?
If you want to take cuttings I would cut it like a normal cutting attempt watch some videos for more info on how to take cuttings
From your experience would white led light or purple led light be better for nepenthes?
They seemed to put on better growth when I had them under white light. I did however have the humidity really high in my previous set up though, basically a large closed “chameleon cantina” terrarium
My Neps DONT sit in water. they are not bog plants. Happy growing
Nepenthes bicalcarata occurs in peat swamps :)
@@acousticanimal5514 yup
some grow in peat swamps, like Bicalcarata, Ampullaria, and Madagascariensis...
