People say that the lowii was designed to catch bird droppings, So i was wondering what would heppen if i feed my pitchers with parakeet poop? Any benefits? Suggestions?

Hmm... an interesting idea- you could always try it on a pitcher and see what happens- I would think that too much of it would "burn" the plant, but it couldn't hurt to try

Mmmmm. yummy. Be careful of the high concentrations of phosphate in the bird poop. Great idea I must admit. Only one caution I can think of is that lowii gains that gourd shape when it hits maturity (when it spits out upper pitchers). Younger plants may not be quite yet ready and thus need a bit weaker doses of bird poop. So I'd place on my best bow tie and ask Lowii, "...would you like fries and a soda along with your bird poop? Perhaps supersize it?"
