Yeap, it is possible. I will give you some live spagnum moss when we meet. But, please remind me!!! Else, sorry hor... I always forget things, especially FOC that I had promise.





For the live spagnum moss, they need high humidity to grow nicely. That is the most difficult part. For me, I still unable grow it nicely. But, still got some lar... can give you around 10~20cent size of them. paiseh...

As I read, they need strong light. But, my friend grow it under shade. No problem as well.

For my case, I grow it together with my CP. Especially VFT and sarracenia. So, you want some as well. hehe... as usual, please remind me when we meet DON't BE SHY. SHY=Nothing. wakaka

But, live spagnum moss need really high humidity to grow nicely...

sad to hear that. You can give it a water tray. With water tray, you dont need to water it every day lor... Good for lazy people like me.

HyourinMaru, I think potting soil can be use.

You can buy live spagnum moss from Fauzi. He have it for sale. But, not sure whether got stock or not.

I started a new blog and hope able to share the limited knowledge that I have to others. Please enjoy it...

There is high quality and low quality spagnum moss. Those from china can get it from some nursery. But, not high quality. So far, I only know the orchid nursery at OUG selling that.

May I know how many you want?

ngan, you have a nicely grow D. intermedia!!!!

If is no problem for the media. Why dont you just use all spagnum moss?

You need to bury part of the VFT leaf into media, may be 0.5cm ~ 1cm

Cool... Mine sharing with us what are you getting?

carnivourous plants didnt smell

"water tray method" that we always refer to is put CP on top of tray or container that filled with water. And it always fill in with water... The water tray method mainly use for drosera, sarracenia and VFT. It is not recommend use it for nepenthes, but, you still can do so for nepenthes if the media is airy or the pot is big.

For more information, you can refer to my blog

Thank you for yours complimentation...

Hi there, there is many type of CP. Each of them may have need difference growing requirement. Below are just rules of tumb, certain species may need special requirement.

Nepenthes
- 50%~70% shaded sunlight
- media - normally we use spagnum moss mixed with others media, like perlite, charcoal, cocochip. You can use cocopeat as well.
- make sure the media is wet. Water it when top of media is dry.

Drosera
- direct sunlight
- spagnum moss + perlite or pure spagnum moss
- 1cm ~2cm water tray

VFT
- direct sunlight (a expert said it is better give it 50% shaded. tropical afternoon sunlight is too strong for VFT and may causing slow grow rate. Im still experience on that)
- spagnum moss + perlite or pure spagnum moss or peat moss + perlite
- 1cm water tray or always wet media

Sarracenia
- direct sunlight
- spagnum moss + perlite or pure spagnum moss
- water tray, prefer half of pot height.

For the media, you can get it from some nursery at Klang Valley.

HyourinMaru, you should repot it!!! You done a great job!!!!! And I believe that the spagnum moss in the pot is melted and become peat moss and not much inside the pot already...

You should take out those VFt and media out from the pot and separate them. And plant those big plant in separate pot. For those small size VFT, repot them in a pot or 2 . You may use tweezer to help you. http://carnivorousplants.wordpress.com/200...-using-tweezer/

Added on June 13, 2010, 11:28 pmI agree with rideon, there are many nursery that selling VFT nowsady. But, please be carefull when choosing/buying VFT. Because, most of nursery dont know how to take care them.


Thats why it called Venus FLY TRAP
