Soon after setup - Feb 01

Today - March 06

Things are just starting to take off. I think the next 30 days will
have significantly more growth.

It's coming along very nicely! I can't wait to see it in person. From the two pictures, it looks like your pitcher plant in the upper middle left is growing just as fast as the one I got, and I just have it on the windowsill. So, when are the frogs going in?

How do you trim a set up like that, anyways?

Whoa! It looks great! I think a nice Phalanopsis clinging to a branch would be the icing on the cake.

Have you had any problems with damping off?

Cheers.

Yeah the one on the top left is a highland species - doesnt like
warm temps but will enjoy higher humidty. Seems to be doing ok
in the viv despite being placed up so high (lower humidty and
higher temps)

Plants look like they're just getting ready to put out a burst of growth.
Seems they take about 3 weeks or so to acclimate and then just
take off!

With gardening shears?

I have several mini orchid species in there, with a few more
to be added in the upcoming weeks. Most orchids don't like the
low ventilation / high temps - so have to be careful when picking
out orchids for the viv.
