    What temperature do you recommend them at? ICPS says 80-09 deg F (25-30C). Currently I am able to keep 70 degree nights and 90 degree day temps. intermediate seeds. Will that be okay? Thanks again, videos are great

      Your temp looks good 👍
      Go for 12h to 14h of light a day. ;)

    I'd really like to see a video that shows how you harden off newly sprouted Nepenthes from seeds. Do you wait some time before removing them from the higher humidity under the dome?

    • @WindowsillNepenthes
      @WindowsillNepenthes  2 роки тому

      You're ahead! I'll show that soon! In fact I have 3 plants from this very seeds that are already big enough to be put on a windowsill but first I don't have the space right now...
      First, I have a tray that was requisitioned by my wife to grow vegetables while waiting for spring. Second, since it's still a little cold at night on my windowsill, I'll to wait for it to warm up a bit to limit the shock on the small nepenthes. ;)

    Love the Gremlins clip! I'm pretty sure my roommates wouldn't love me using the blender for LFS lol.
    Also a light tutorial would be great. Found it very confusing to shop for and learn PAR, etc.

      Fertilizing is important if the plant don't have access to insects (indoor). And it speed up the growth for sure.

      It will depend of the freshness of the seeds.
      Fresh one take 1 month.

    whether you sprinkled the seeds after sowing?

      The water spray will press the seeds on the substrate so less seeds will be drying.

      To clean the surface mold and before the seeds germinate or when the seedlings are bigger like 4 leaves, I use it pure and spray (it's hydrogen peroxide 3%).
