Hi all. Despite being rather "new" to the world of CPs, I've been pretty successful in the propagation of my CPs (tropical pitchers, Akai Ryu flytraps, and garden variety flytraps, typical form) over the last couple of years. This has resulted in over 7+ of each variety listed above in the past year alone... they're multiplying like crazy! I'd like to introduce variety into my collection, but I've run out of room due to the current quantity. As I'm sure some CP enthusiasts can relate, my significant other would like to see me recoup the money spent on the plants/supplies I currently have before I invest in more (they just don't understand! ). Which brings me to my question: have you guys found greater success in selling off plants or trading? When you're sitting on common varieties of CPs, I would imagine it would be difficult to sell. What do you do when you have too many of the same variety of plants? Donate? Sell? Trade? Any advice would be much appreciated.
I've included pictures of the plants I have (in case someone is interested, eh?). Perhaps y'all can tell me whether I should even bother attempting to trade or sell, or whether anyone would be interested in these common varieties (please be honest, but nice!),

1 Akai Ryu quickly became 5. This is one of the more robust babies!
