Went to a plant show yesterday with no intention to buy. I’ve had a h. gunung gading (bottom) on my list for so long though and the price was right so here we are… Also there was a carnivorous table so I picked up a sundew (top) to go with my pings that I had at home.
Do you live in a warmer climate and/or have radiator heat? From what I’ve read, carneverous plants like higher humidity and Midwest winters + forced air make for a pretty dry house.
Also, be careful with bottled water. They all have some level of minerals in them to get their flavor profile. That said, if you’ve been doing this for any period of time carry on!
I live in Canada, the province I’m in is more on the humid side but nothing crazy. The humidity in my house is usually around 45-50%. My one ping was around a heat pump and has been doing fine, no issues with the bottled water yet 🤷♀️
Sundew are pretty robust. If it’s super dry they’ll produce less snot but given lots of light and distilled water they’ll eat lots of gnats. Enjoy the Hoya, let that guy dry out a bit between waterings.
