Newer photo...trap to left is 1.25 inches corner to corner (straight not following curve of trap)....and I got two baby plants off this VFT earlier....see photo of 26Mar10 showing main growth point and the two "baby" growth points I separated...one is at the 6 o'clock position and one at 10 o'clock with main growth point at 3 o'clock. Plant currently under four foot flourescent lights as it still goes below freezing outside iat night...(and I'd only have to forget to bring it in once and its dead).   |

Yes but maybe the light above it explains why its green?
It's just peat and perlite...not a complex chemical-based growth medium... ;D.
You may be right that a slightly peat-heavy mix is better...but i stress the might........I have heard 5 parts peat,3 parts sand, 2 parts perlite can work better then 50/50 peat/perlite so am trying that out....but there are lots of medium "recipes" and very little to show one is better then the standard 50/50 peat/perlite mix.
