Today I was separating a whole bunch of seedling Drosera of various sorts in multiple overcrowded pots which got me to thinking...
What is y'alls procedure for growing Drosera (or Dionaea or anything else for that matter) from seed. Do you intentionally overseed pots with the intention of thinning the weak ones out? Do you sparsely seed and just let them grow? Or do you do something in the middle where they grow closely together and split them for replanting later? I never really see anyone talking about this and would like to hear how everyone else deals with seedlings.
I think it goes without saying that plants will have to be transplanted at some point. I'm only asking about, say, the first 2 months after germination depending on growth rate. Aaaaand.......GO!!
