DAily dose of internet ... same voice ... haha great infos BRAD THX
Thanks...cant wait to see all of those popped pitchers.
Hi Brad I started my cold stratification on my Pinguicula Poldinii yesterday thanks for the instructions on how to do that
I'd love to try and grow these nepenthes from seed. I love carnivorous plants but I never seem to find any healthy ones around town. I love the sundews too! So cool how you got all those seeds to sprout 🌱 Thanks for sharing this video with us Brad. It's always a pleasure learning about carnivorous plants from you 😉 I'd love to take a tour of your greenhouses one day 😍
Amazing!
Ur setup is so cool!
Thanks. I just forage a newly dried flower from the wild. Since I'm staying in a tropical country this plant can be found not far from my place. Ur info helps me to plant this plant from the seed
Here it is! Lost of goods adivices thank you!
A couple of question: if I keep tha germination pot a little covered to keep more humidity?
What kind of water do you use at this stage?
The seed pods I have are not really fresh, let's see if something grows from them...
Hi Brad! another question just popped up. How do you sterilize the medium you gonna use with your seeds? Thanks
Hi there! I really enjoy watching your videos and I've learned a lot!
I wonder if you have a description or a video about stratification of seeds. Thanks a lot
Hoffmanestro actally I don't think I do, I'll see what I have to stratify come fall
Is there going to be an update about those seedlings? Or is it there already an update? I really like Nepenthes and I want to grow them also out of seeds 😃
Brad, I ordered some drosera filiformis traceyi. Are these temperate and are they good for bog gardens?
do you cover the containers for higher humidity?
Great stuff. But how long do you microwave your media for to sterilize? Thanks
When and how do you transplant ?
Do you separate them from the sphagnum?
Hola, cuál es la temperatura óptima para que germinen?
WHAT are those plants next to some of your seed pots on that upper shelf? the ones twhere the pitcher is coming straight out of the ground and theyre all grouped together? totally gorgeous!
those are Heliamphoras, gorgeous plants and not that hard to grow : they are tropicals plants mostly from Venezuela, they mostly live on tepuy (very special geologic formation) and they love humidity, high level of light and relatively low temperature (around or under 20C) they grow well with higlanders.
Do you have to stratify the seed
nice they look good for wittle ones lol good luck with them
Tini tiny, and grow so slow at first, it's hard to believe they get so big.
yea thats true you have really nice ones its gonna be a while till they get that big but it will all be worth the wait
When do they grow their little pitchers? He he I'm so impatient •_• can't wait!
same
Same >.>
heh, I wonder if you have anything from it after 5 years!
@@youngdaveey2966 after 5 years, definitely but maybe super slow growers like Villosa and Lamii would still be small. The first 2 years they are usually extremely slow growers.
@@vacciniumaugustifolium1420 hmm yeah, it's funny how it's been already 2 months since I started with nepenthes. I feel a lot smarter now! I also own 6 more hybrids and a new species. Life's cool. I want a toothy hybrid one day. My goal for nepenthes is to get n. "Mizuho"
@@youngdaveey2966 quite a nice complex hybrid, those wings are spectacular 😳
how do you get these rare seeds? seems most offered are poached
I really wish that I could get some nepenthes seeds.
I dont know if youve tried, but growing them in a ziploc tented with exhaled breath seems to really give seedlings a real boost. It doesn't seem to make them any taller, just more plump and healthy. Id be really curious to see if it works on carnivorous plants as well. Id give it a go, but i dont own any i can fit in a ziploc/ other clear bag.
what do you mean by exhaled breath? breathe into the bag and then seal it?
Yes you are correct as to what they meant
Where did you get the Rajah seeds from?
From a rajah plant lmao
I bought some nepenthes seedlings from my local nursery they already have tiny pitchers on them and came planted in what looks like peat moss and perlite, they were soaking wet and some of the lower leaves and pitchers had gone brown and rotten but otherwise they look very healthy. I've found a lot of conflicting information online about how to pot them what ind of pot and media would you recommend?
I use sphagnum moss
@@BradsGreenhouse Yeah that's what I went with plus I added some perlite they seem to be doing pretty well.
Violent Rainbow awesome!
How long til you have to start splitting them up?
And i will post updates on mine are you?
Do you have any Nepenthes Argentii growing?
I'm rolling the dice and going to try to grow Edwardsiana on my window sill, they are in a pot like yours with the same mix and with a cover, holes in the bottom. Plenty of light but not direct sunlight. Temperature might be a problem though, what temperature should the seeds be maintained at?
I'm attempting the same thing. Any luck?
5 years! How has it been
@@Black_chinese_monster Actually pretty easy!
@@Salsa_Souls you should probably make videos about it or something
Some people love seeing such things growing on a window sill
@@Black_chinese_monster If I only I had that sort of time! ;-)
hey brad could you tell me the name of that plant with the stripes in the backround there in the dark green pot ..ty =)
and nice vid btw :D
i think that's a Bromeliad Achmea Chantini. Correct me if i'm wrong Brad
Whet we can get seeds
Stratification?
When i grew them, it took 3 months to sprout
I managed to grow one nepenthes from seed but then my cat destroyed it when it was couple of months old... Rip little one
oof, that's sad, I'll keep mine out of reach of my cat. (btw to everything exciting, those might have been old seeds)
Do you put on the lid to the container?
I don't in the greenhouse but I would if they were in the house.
Do seedlings need fertilizer or do they go their first year without eating?
I put a single osmocote pellet in the very bottom of the pot. They will grow without, but it gives them just that little boost
wow it's hard to find nepenthes seeds will you be selling any this spring?
radioactive wolfs carnivorous plants go on eBay 5$ for 5 seeds free ship
AlanMota 303 This is crazy, just go on eBay and search for the seller albermarlesouds, this guy sells pods. For example I bought a jacquelineae pod for 6$
Don't use ebay nothing but scam! Use a place like rares exotic seeds
Can you tell us where you purchase viable seeds???
Viable ....nope, I luck out about 50% of the time, but even the even the "fresh" ones aren't always viable I find. Look for online carnivorous plant dealers and see what they have in their seeds section. Carnivorous plant forums always have a for sale section from other hobbiest, eBay sometimes has some.
I would like to buy seeds can you help me out?
do i burry the seeds or throw them on top of the moss?
Matt Robertson on top and press down slightly so they properly contact the spragham moss
@@Zerbirus I just learned about the moss. I sewed tonight, do you think I could grid up some s. Moss and sprinkle on top?
@@shineisland7447 Leave uncovered
Should work on peat moss too if you don't over water
@@Zerbirus thanks😃
Watch out Brad, you may have to start selling plants full time soon.
Haha, I know! I'm always hopefully I get two or three seedlings per batch. Sometime I get zero, sometimes I get two-three, sometimes I get fifty!
***** I'd love to take some of your Nepenthese if you decide to ever sell. your my Nepenthes hero.
The rajah might fill up ur greenhouse a few yrs later they get massive
Damstershark75 I know! Can't wait!
Also the insect or rat soup in ur adult rajahs will also smell terrible and grow mosquitos(if u put in water)good luck on the rajahs!!
Damstershark75 I highly doubt his rajah is going to be catching any rats in his greenhouse, as rodents are not attracted to the pitchers. Any rodents inside of Nepenthes was due to their own carelessness, so it is highly unlikely for a rodent to be trapped in a Nepenthes in a greenhouse. The smell of the insects will not be any worse than any of his other Nepenthes, so it will be nothing new. It is also worth noting Nepenthes really dont smell that bad as the prey is usually completely submerged by the fluids which keep the scent in quite well.
So you mean insect soup smells nice?
Btw im not insulting brad's nepenthes so yeah
Hello......for how long should i put them in the microwave to sterilize it???
Michael Rosado 10 seconds works for me
Man the litle pitchers on them are tiny
How do you feed baby pitcher plants
I understand that most of your seeds germinated about 1 month from planting seeds. I could say i'm newbie grower. I have tried to grow nepenthes begining from seed a few times, but i failed(i assume). So i want to ask that, how much time should past before i consider that these seeds won't germinate.
I've been told nep seeds can germinate between 2 months to a year. I'm a newbie as well and got seeds of some ventricosa hybrids last July. I had one of the ventricosa Rebecca soper seeds start to germinate on damp kitchen paper but think I had have lost it amongst some sphagnum and may of transferred it too early. But the best advice an experienced grower has told me about carnivorous plants is not to throw anything awway and be patient.
So am continuing to dampen my seeds and see what happens. But would be an idea how to tell if the embryo in the seed is still viable or not.
can you use coconut coir in place of sphagnum moss?
I heard u can but make sure it has no salts cuz many brands have some sort of salt content.
If it has, is it possible wash it off?
@@jewiesnew3786 I use coconut, It works great. No Issues.
@@LaFranceBonjour how much moisture do you keep your media on? out of a hundred seeds only one sprout came and immediately overwhelmed by mold.
@@jewiesnew3786 I keep it moist and leave it in full sun, which kills or suppresses any mold. I had mold issue when it was growing as babies and I got rid of it with natural fungicide that is made with plant acids/tannins that wont harm seedlings. I also have a very well draining pot also (its actually hanging in a tree branch in basked made from metal and a type of cheesecloth material) Only problem is that I need to water every 2 days. Maybe it just happen to like the climate of southern france that has more dry air and lots of sun
mine just germinated after 4th week and 5th week the seed just lost its green color that I think just died. any reason why?
Humra Thach Maybe your media wasn't fertilized so the seeds died or a fungus attacked your seeds, maybe it was the PH, or too much heat... It could be a lot of reasons.
Emilien thevenin I found out I over watered it now they are doing better I started watering them twice a week
Are the baby pitcher plants feedable
I would imagine so, I have some tiny pitchers on one of my plants that take fruit flies (Drosophila hydei) and there are even smaller fruit flies that are cultivated. My plants seem to thrive on fruit flies that escape my Dendrobates tanks. As long as the baby pitchers have an opening that could fit maybe a single Dosophila megaloster, they should be able to eat.
8:55 i thought u are going to show the marinda!
Damstershark75 just wait for the next video, still have to edit it but.... Just for you
Btw that only marinda pitcher aready looked awesome
Mr di tampa'an itu okeh om...? Saya beli biji nya doang ... pas pertama beli kemarin cuman dapat kertasnya om....? Jadi issinya gak ada cuman kantong plastik kosong....?

Haha, yeah. They seem to take so long to get going.
Why do you sound like daily dose of internet
