Drosera seedlings pics

[shawnintland]

Here's a couple pictures of the baby D. indica seedlings and some D. burmanii seedlings;





And these just in from Athena; some D. spatulata & D. adelae (Thanks Athena! ;D)





P.S. We just discussed that shipping the D. adelae leaf cuttings in water inside the double wrapped seal-a-meal pouches seems to be an excellent way to transport them! ;D

Hello, may i know when do you start repotting the plantlets from the germinating tray? My Spatulata and Burmanii is just less than 2 mm in height now. When do i shift them to their new home? Hehe.

Well, there are lots of people around here more experienced with Drosera than me, but I did it shortly after they germinated (3-4 weeks) as I keep hearing about them disliking their roots being disturbed. I figured I'd get it over with so I wouldn't be upset about losing a plant that I'd babied for months if things went badly!
Let's see what the experts say!

Beautiful...I bought many types cp seeds from ebay and even a live venus cp.Non of the seeds hatched and the venus kaput after a month.

Sad to hear that your CP kaput, the member's in petpitcher are very nice, maybe u can ask for some seeds donation. But make sure u study and read more before sowing the seeds. Then u have bigger chance to grow them and also wont waste seeds mer. Hehe, most of my seeds already growing to 2mm sized plantet. But i am very afraid to repot them. Sigh, scratch my head. Btw, i already fully occupied a terrarium made from aquarium stand for 4 ft aquarium. If i repot the plantlets i really dunno where to put them. Maybe i'll have to put outdoor.
