  • This was my first thought - that this was a calculated stunt. Talent builds intrigue, but rage gets clicks. This is sad to see as it is, but if this is a genuine reaction, it's even sadder.

    I would never want anything to do with this artist, whether this was a genuine bad reaction or malicious. Just sad.

  • Here you go! "Nepenthes like being kept moist, not wet. Think of a moist sponge. They appreciate a well draining potting mix and dislike standing in water constantly. They should never be allowed to completely dry out. You can keep them in saucers of water indoors, but they must be allowed to evaporate in between waterings." - https://redleafexotics.com/pages/nepenthes-care-guide. I think it was mentioned further up the thread as well with some other good tips from @AlecStewart1st@lemmy.world

  • I don't run a heat lamp, but I keep mine inside, nearish a window, and it never gets below 60F in my house (so about 15.5C). I water mine from the top, when I see water start to form in the rocks under it, I stop. I do that twice a week based on that "sponge" rule.

  • I'm so thankful @AlecStewart1st@lemmy.world got hold of this to help answer questions for you. Everything you were told is 100% the perfect advice.

    If you want to know more of my setup - I have a single 10w SANSI bulb about a foot away and on for 12 hours a day, also the plant is in an east facing window. I have the nursery-style pot on top of some glass "rocks" in a drainage tray, and water twice a week using the "sponge" rule. The tray of glass "rocks" keeps the Nep from sitting in water. My apartment ranges from 30% humidity in the winter to about 70%+ in summer. I live in the Northeastern US near the coast, so that helps a bit. You can see my setup here:

  • Post a picture! Also there is a pretty great Discord for John's Carnivorous Plants that can usually ID a Nepenthes in minutes here: https://discord.gg/bn4wNpwj (but post here first because I'm greedy and I want a first crack at it)

  • Some definitely don’t mind a little chill at night. Other hybrids are hearty in either. Do you know which one you have?

  • "Additionally, Disney announced that starting September 6 subscribers in the US will have access to a new ad-free bundled subscription featuring the ad-free Disney+ and Hulu services for $19.99 a month" I already have had this for a while, it's interesting that this isn't going up... maybe I'm missing something? I think I might have ESPN+ in mine as well, but I don't use it, so didn't notice.

    You guys hate carpet in the bathroom? I can one up that. My parents have a bathroom with carpet that goes up the bathtub walls! Bonus points for the terrible wallpaper.
  • I just audibly gasped. This seems like a sensory nightmare getting out of the shower, or during periods of high humidity.
