Spring pitchers grew in nice and strong I can’t wait for summer and the lowland guys to pop off!

Do you buy the live sphagnum moss? Or grow it? I love it

#### nepenthomancer replied on 2024-06-03

I take cuttings off my carnivorous friends spagnum and sprinkle it onto mine! It’s hard to keep happy-you can’t let it dry up so you’ve got to mist the moss at the base of the nep without misting the nep too much. Really cuts down on watering though I know you and I use a similar grow medium and orchid pots so it should work for you, if you were to buy some from like Carnivero when they do their auctions (it’s cheap like 10$ a bag) you could either plant it all in your pots or plant some of it separately from your plants in a moss prop box and then taking cuttings for each nep to make it last indefinitely. In my big ham x rob the moss is growing out the side of the pot.

I’ve been wanting to get some and have a prop box with some. I might have more time to devote to it next winter when I’m stuck inside bored to tears again lol  
I love Carnivero and I keep seeing the notifications pop up trying to tempt me again 😁
