So, last Wednesday I sowed three types of Drosera in four pots full of dead NZLFS (and maybe 30-50% perlite). As of now none of them have germinated (as far as I can see) so I thought I'd defer to forum members' knowledge and experience.
Two pots of spatulata.
One pot of capensis 'red'.
One pot of binata multifida.
They are outside in a little mini greenhouse, getting dappled afternoon sunlight. I mist them daily, and they are standing in a very small amount of tap water (yes, tap water, TDS in my suburb is 50ppm max). Weather today is a low of 9oC and a top of 16oC, getting up to the mid 20s in the next few days. It's spring down here in Melbourne, Australia.
My bet would be on the capensis going by reputation but as this is my first seed attempt I don't have any real idea.
So put your thoughts in, will keep you updated!
