At least you know that for whatever price you pay, it'll be at least 3 inches.
Now that I'm hearing all this talk about Carnivero, I'm seriously reconsidering a future purchase...

When ordering CPs, I feel like it's best to order from one seller at a time (bulk ordering).
It costs $30 total for shipping flat rate from 2 sellers in which $15 could've been spent on a small-medium nep...
Just a tip.

I had one of their SG small veitchii crosses (different veitchii clones) and it grew faster than I expected it to. Do you fertilize it at all?Yeah the slower growing ones tend to come in tiny sizes, just what i wanted

When I think about it like that, it's easier to deal with the price :/ Ironically though, one of my favorites is Rafflesiana and at the time I paid 30 bucks for it.
And you spent 100 bucks(which is what it's listed as on carnivero)on that.... that.....
Guess you just deal with what you deal with.
