I've been using "focus on foliage" on my Neps for a little while now. The results have been very encouraging. John has seen first hand the increase in pitcher size of my N. ventricosa x carunculata 'robusta' .
Originally this plant was consistently producing pitchers of nearly 4.1/2" high, now 7" high is the norm and close to 4" across the peristome. The plant has not been moved or repotted and it's grwing conditions have not been changed.
Interestingly, there was no gradual increase in pitcher size, the change was very abrupt and pleasantly unexpected.

Where can I buys this orchid focus is Australia, seems like no Australian products have a urea free orchid fertiliser. I need it for my nepenthes collection. I have seen a lot on ebay US, UK. with decent postage cost but guessing there will need to be a permit needed to import fertilisers overseas into New South Wales? Is this true.

I get mine from a hydro shop here in adelaide, , or its made by Growth Technology
