I think this could have saved mine months ago..

[@coagulatedsalts4711]

long story short, if it’s green, don’t cut it

[@botanicalchaos]

Pretty much

You don't even have to cut the whole picher, the bottom half is still alive and able to provide nutrients for the plant. These are good sacrifice pichers for osmocoat feeding.

[@monke1919]

But osmocote dosen't kill them

My mom had this exact one hanging on the front porch. She killed it by the end of summer

Sooooo... I bought a garbage pitcher plant from Home Depot because there was a native tree frog in it. The employee graciously offered to throw the frog into the parking lot but I declined so I could find it a proper release location. So now I have this pitcher that looks like total shit. Replanting options? Soil mix? Not sure if you covered it in a video but I did try to browse the answer. Any advice would be great!

[@xxpowwowbluexx]

Whoa! That’s awesome! Terrible that they wanted to throw the frog into the parking lot, though.

Hi! My pitcher plant is over 2 yrs old. I live in a sub tropical climate. The darn thing is HUGE now and hanging a few feet in every direction from the pot. How do I trim it back and keep it looking good and staying healthy??

[@monke1919]

You can make cuttings and make sure to research how to do stem propagation

[@chasepoore]

What if your pitcher plant won’t clean its room? Can you yell at it?

[@Anonymouss222]

😅

[@trenaebowers1968]

Do they grow back once you cut off him

[@botanicalchaos]

No

[@trenaebowers1968]

@@botanicalchaos can I water them with those self-watering globes that you stick in the soil

[@botanicalchaos]

@@trenaebowers1968 you can but those usually don’t work anyway

[@trenaebowers1968]

@@botanicalchaos it seems to be keeping the soil moist and it lasts for days
