Currently I have:
N. ramos
N. eustachya
N. Veitchi x Adriani
N. Ventricosa Black Peristome
N. reinward x maxima
N. Maxima

I need D. Petiolaris and other nepe

This forum does have separate trade boards for several regions. You also might want to be more specific about what you have and what you're looking for.

Depending on the species, I'd be up for a sterile culture trade in the next few months. I just need some time for my cultures to grow enough to divide them. I'm mostly interested in cultures without PPM in the media, but I'll consider those, too.

Oke,, I will post there.

What's wrong with PPM Mate??

Nothing is wrong with it, but I don't trust cultures initiated on PPM containing media to be 100% sterile, due to the fact that it often hides contamination for months, or until you replate onto media that's PPM-free. I prefer to avoid working with potentially contaminated cultures in my flow hood, but if the species is rare enough, I'd be willing to work around that to get them plated into PPM-free media.
