Good morning friends.
A member has asked me about growing tuberous Drosera from seed (he has some D. lunata from the seed bank), and I have no experience with them. I linked him to the ICPS article on them, but I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share their knowledge with him?
Let me know and I'll hook you up with him to see if you can help him out.
Thanks,
Chef

There is a great youtuber at Queensland who has experience growing tuberous drosera from seed. I don't remember the video but he mentioned that he got his tuberous drosera seeds from a private collector and by following the instructions given he managed to grow them well! Here is a link to the video as his guide for growing tuberous drosera:

If that video is not enough you can ask him directly for advice. I don't personally know him but he often replies to his YouTube comments so it wouldn't hurt to try! He also has a Facebook under the same name and pfp if that doesn't work. I wish this helps!
