If you are going to use peat/perlite just slip pot it. the plants will enjoy the deeper pot. if i was printing the pots i would make them 10in deep min.Thanks, I'll keep in mind slip-potting as well as a deeper pot design.
You know, it kinda hits you different when you only look at the first picture and can tell every cultivar apart, then be absolutely correct about it.That's impressive you knew what they all were! I'll have to look into this spider mite issue incase it happens. Thanks for the heads up on that. Good luck this year!It didn’t happen until 8 years later after building a large collection, they popped out in the humid hot summer in Texas. I’m right on the coast, and I was just as surprised when I heard that they only come around in hot and "dry" conditions. It isn’t dry at all because I am right on the water, it’s always humid, even when it’s cold. I have seen large masses of fog rolling in over the water at night when it was down to 35°f here out of nowhere. Texas can’t ever make up its mind, it doesn’t know what "warm" weather is. It does what other states don’t do. It’s either hotter than h*ll or so cold you don’t wanna be outside. Spring time is the only time that is somewhat "acceptable".
I have had all of these before spider mites were a thing. I miss my low giant, jaws, and my W.I.P long snapper. They were good plants. Jaws only keeps its "shark" cilia showing strongest in early summer. Mine looked like a regular fly trap in the fall all the way until early spring, when it started growing tall upright growth and it started forming the neat jaws cilia little by little, it had some with and some without those unique teeth. My W.I.P long snapper looked very interesting when undergoing dormancy, it was very rosetted, when I kicked my lights back on to 18 hours, it started getting very tall, and had some very neat distinguished red and orange splotches. My low giant was almost nothing when it was dormant, no traps and kind of resembled to what my G-14 rosetted was showing. It seems that low/rosetted growing cultivars just die back completely when dormant, while the more upright growers look like the rosetted cultivars in the spring and summer. My b52 was a roach, fly, just about anything slayer. I LOVED my B52, it was the one plant that had large and very deep red almost maroon traps when grown under intense blurple led lighting. My largest trap from that plant measured at 2.8 inches. More than enough, I think it might’ve been larger than the Guinness record. I had that b52 for about 4 years until it did get attacked outdoors, by my arch nemesis, Spider mites. My plants got treated every 10-15 days with bayer 3in1 they all died. That’s why I stopped growing them outdoors and stuck to intense lighting, and when it is the first day of fall, I change the timer to 8 hours on, 10 hours off. I think? It put them into dormancy just fine and when it started warming back up, I turned the lights back on to 18 hours.
