[iskittydrawerperson]

dude where you get them plants? im starting an indoor garden to keep these dumb flies out of my house.

[ThoseTwoNoobs]

Were do you order your plants at?

[IlovemydogAngel123]

Are they dead?

[hunterb89]

u plan on putting fish in there?

[Piranhaboy01]

@hunterb89 yes, wild brook trout. will be expecting them to spawn in the brook once it's finished

[hunterb89]

@Piranhaboy01 nice. i like trout as well btw just got me first two plants today a rubber tree (umbrella tree) and a spider plant

[swamkip]

Nice bog but idk if cephs are suitable as bog plants

[Piranhaboy01]

@swamkip when it thaws i plan on putting them near a water seep I'll be creating from the brook. This is only to stop them from an unstable environment over winter hoping they'll survive it until it warms up. the bog will be then created around the edge of the pond for sarracenia and sundews

[STFUbelgium]

NOOOO NOT THE CEPHS

Dangermouse strikes again!

[PhazonSwimmy]

hey i have a 1 year old b52 flyrtrap, should it hibernate?

[Piranhaboy01]

@PhazonSwimmy it all depends. i have one too that should be in this frozen pond too but is growing under artificial lights. this is only because it never had a good growing season. is yours still growing or has it stopped sending up new leaves?

[PhazonSwimmy]

@Piranhaboy01 it sens up these like 2mm leaves they are really small

[Piranhaboy01]

@PhazonSwimmy it sounds like it's preparing for hibernation. start putting it outside in the day to acclimate. after a week, you should be able to leave it outside for the winter - with protection. message me with some details

[PhazonSwimmy]

@Piranhaboy01 the plant always had 2 mm leaves that size during summer

[Piranhaboy01]

@PhazonSwimmy oh wait now, you have a 1 year old seedling of a b52. am i right? ... that explains the 2mm leaves. i wouldn't put it outside this winter. give it a good growing season indoors all winter, place it outside next spring and THEN leave it out to acclimate for the following winter.

[engelteir]

where abouts are you?

[HellsAngels0012]

why put them in a pond that u know will freeze? won't they die

[Killerspider762]

You should jump in the bog and make a video of it haha. Hioefully those cephs survive... Good luck...

[Piranhaboy01]

@Killerspider762 hey hey my buddy... long time no see. how is your green army?

[Killerspider762]

@Piranhaboy01 My green army is few in number now because I became to lazy to water the outside plants enough and I accidently put some kind of toxic insecticide on my vfts when they were being attacked by aphids... Im down to a Nepenthes truncata, nepenthes miranda, nepenthes spathulata and cephalotus follicularis. All of whom are doing well :)

[Piranhaboy01]

@Killerspider762 aha!... thank you for this vital information... see everybody, these plants NEED WATER... and i don't mean a little watering now and again when they look dry. i'll repeat what I do with the vast majority of my carnivorous plants. I FLOOD THE POTS UP TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PLANTS AT ALL TIMES! when they are outside they need even more water than inside. try to drown your plants and just watch what happens - you get videos like mine!

[PenguinFart3]

My question is, why in the heck would you start to build it during this time of year???

[ardotschgi1]

@PenguinFart3 lol? do you even get the purpose of this?

[PenguinFart3]

@ardotschgi1 Nope, probably not!! :)

[Darkrai283fromcpuk]

Whoa it froze that quick? I hope your plants survive!

[PhazonSwimmy]

arent cephalotus desert plants

[Darkrai283fromcpuk]

@PhazonSwimmy No they are not. They grow in Australia mostly on the diagonal/vertical 'edge/ridges' on the coasts and beaches. Their environment there never goes dry. you can see the average temps and rainfall for where they grow at: foxoles.dsl.pipex.com/cephalot­usfollii.html

[Piranhaboy01]

@Darkrai283fromcpuk yep, and i figure i'm pushing the limit but we shall see...
