very cool collection. I was given a nepenthes ventrata but I collect orchids. I was told not to fertilize and so I collect bugs to feed the pitchers. pellets would be easier lol.

[@IndoorCarnivores]

Thank you! Yes, pellets make feeding them a lot easier haha!

HI, WHAT OSMACOTE PELLET FERTILISER DO YOU USE??? I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE UREA IN THE PELLETS, HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THAT?? TOO MUCH UREA I HEARD WAS NOT GOOD. LET ME KNOW PLEASE. KINDEST REGARDS AND BLESSINGS, ANNETTE QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA.

I use Osmocote flowers and vegetables. They work great on my sundew and pitcher plants.

[@MenacingRabbit]

Can I add nutricote ? Would that be the same thing as osmocote ?

[@PenguinTac0s]

What are your thoughts on adding liquid fertilizer to the pitchers? Would that work too?

[@IndoorCarnivores]

Yes that works although im not experienced in it whatsoever, so I cant comment on how to use it properly and the effects it has. I just use the pellets because they are fairly easy and cheap

whats the humidity in there, the lid is open

[@IndoorCarnivores]

About 60-65%. I have another tank that has about 3/4 of the top covered and it keeps the humidity above 80%.

[@MrFlowrider123]

Curious to know what kind of lights you have over the tank?

[@IndoorCarnivores]

I use these ones www.thebiodude.com/collections/led-reptile-lighting/products/22-biodude-led. Although I would recommend you check out Carnivero's Florawave lights as they were engineered specifically for nepenthes
