Hello, this thread is about my Cephalotus plants and updates about them. This is a sort of continuation of this thread (http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/cepha ... 32720.html) which was initially a question about Cephalotus care.
I only have 2 Cephalotus plants right now; FTS Cephalotus and Eden Black. They are grown indoors under 19w CFL. The humidity is typical indoor 40%-50%. I use a 5:2 Perlite:peat mix which I top water thoroughly every 7 to 10 days. I recently started foliar feeding using 1/4 strength urea free orchid fertilizer applied using a brush. I intend to do this every other waterings. I also put 1 pellet of Osmocote in the growing medium of each pot. I do not know if it has any benefits but I figured it can't hurt and it might be able to supply some trace elements.
Development of the first adult pitcher on the Eden Black: My indoor setup:
