Hello to anyone out there,
I have been growing VFT's for several years now with success but
everytime my VFT had flowered and formed seeds, I have never successfully
germinate the seeds. Also, not all the flowers would form seeds. I would
usually pollinate them with a Q-tip and only one or two of the flowers would
form seeds. I had placed the seeds on damp peat moss. Can anyone advise as
to how to get those seeds to germinate? (lighting condition, humidity, temp,
growing medium)

Anyways, since I've been growing VFT for several years and I'm getting
a little bored, I recently got a few Droseras. I have no idea what type of
Drosera but when I bought them, they had large droplets on the hairs of the
leaves. After I placed them into my terranium, all the droplets disappeared.
The humidity in my terranium was 50-60% and I had repotted them into new
pots. The plant continues to sprout new leaves but only small minute
droplets form on the leaves. Can anybody give me any advise on how to get
them to form large droplets again?

One more thing, I am starting to look into increasing my collection of
CP but I am unable to find any Canadian CP/supply distributors. If anybody
are or know of anyone who sells CP/supplies that lives in the Vancouver,
B.C., Canada area, please leave me a message. Thanks
