FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I'm curious how everyone cares for leaf pullings -

1. Do you typically bag/saran wrap your leaf pullings? Or do you just lay them on the soil so the rhizome-end is in contact with the soil? Does it make much of a difference?

2. Do you mist them daily?

3. Do you cut the trap off of leave it on?

4. Ever try using superthrive or anything on them?

1) Never, it induces mold growth in my case. Air humidity isn't that important I think, wet soil is.

2) I never mist them:)

3) I use whole leaves, I only cut the trap off if it's dead

4) When it goes about chemicals, I used auxins - IAA exactly. It worked fine, and induced the development of plantlets

An I give them lots of light, sometimes I cover them partially with peat moss. I also tried to use pure silica sand as soil for leaf pullings, it worked good too.
