Thank you, in Advance:
From Gemmae bought on Forum~ 10 each Scorpiodes, Palacea and Dichrosepala - all same conditions, 28 days on soil -


Issue:: My 10 Drosera Dichrosepala on filtered/baked peat (need more sand, I know), at 28 days - not growing, no dew.
Cool bright Lights at 10 inches, flourescent T5.
75 degrees, 50% humidity

No Issues::
I have 10 each Dr Scorpiodes and Dr. palacea that are growing, have dew.
Cool bright Lights at 10 inches, flourescent T5.
75 degrees, 50% humidity

My Capensis and Marston Dragon are growing crazy next to these.

Would someone Help this old guy in Marietta, new to Pigmys?

You might have to increase humidity on them. I have the same problem with some of my gemmae and I fixed it by decreasing the humidity actually, but something to try. How wet is the media you're growing them in? You might want to make it slightly drier.

I find that with time the plants normally sort themselves out and return to normal growth, so don't worry about it too much.
