- Repotting your plants can be a bit scary if you haven’t done it before! Daniela will walk you through repotting your butterworts or Pinguicula in this video. For more information or to buy ping mix visit www.californiacarnivores.com
I gotta work this repotting regimen into my yearly chores for my pings!!! BTW, I love, love your longer, in-depth videos. So helpful and informative!!! And BTW, the fans aren't loud at all. Probably wouldn't have noticed if you didn't mention it. :) Your voice came through loud 'n clear!!!
Thank you! I keep buying microphones and they keep dying or getting broken 😂🤦♀️ the humidity kills all electronics even when I try to seal them up! So I always worry when we’re in a microphone-less period! I’m hoping we can get back on track with long form videos this year, now that most of the huge project work is done at the new nursery!
@@California_Carnivores you all have been soooooo busy getting your new nursery functional! AND you all kept on top of orders. I wish I knew more about microphones. I know there are bluetooth sports headphone/mics out there that are water resistant. I have no idea about quality of sound recording but that might be something to explore.
You explain and teach so well. Just got 2 Pings last month and potted them up. One has a flower and both have had gnats to devour. These will keep my orchids company.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you found it helpful!
I bought a Venus fly trap from Walmart the other day and have been researching their care heavily since then. Of course I'm also learning about other carnivorous plants as well, and I've fallen in love with pings! I am grateful for your videos. Thank you so much!
I’m so glad these videos have been helpful!
Ah thanks for this! I need to repot and divide my little ping. So glad the flowers can stay during the process!
So looking forward to getting one along with a pygmy drosera!🌸❤🏵
Very interesting. Will be repotting my own carnivorous plants soon - including Pinguiculas.
Just got my first ping and now I'm a subscriber. Thanks
Thank you so much! Excellent video.
Ps I have always loved your vocabulary! You paint such vivid imagery. 🌱💚
Thank you so much!!!! 😄
I'm so fricken excited to learn all the things about pings! I do have two but we need a supplier like you two up here in Canada lol
If you break the flower stem from the base of the plant you can treat it the same as a leaf pull and grow a new plant.
Awesome tutorial! And OMG, the hair! Love it!
Thank you so much!
This was awesome, thank you so much! The mister trick for getting dirt off I put to use immediately on my most recent ping and it worked amazingly well!
I’m so glad it was helpful!
My Ping windowsill kit is due to arrive tomorrow. I'm so excited.
Thank you for your order!
How often do u water the Pings after transplant to get them going? Love your videos. Very informative and helpful. I do tropicals, air plants, and closed terrariums. Got into carnivorous plants over last year and very addicting. Love it
In winter I water less frequently so maybe twice a week overhead but as soon as the day lengths get longer and it gets warmer I let them sit in about 1/2” of water, let them dry out a day or two between watering and water again! I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed the videos! 😄
WOW, thank you so much for telling me what's going on with my pings!! So, I've separated and repotted everyone (9 plants plus 5 leaves that were previously crammed into 2 pots). Can I wash the old substrate/ planting media to reuse it and wash off the salt??
I’m so glad this was helpful! I wouldn’t reuse substrate, even if you rinse it you aren’t able to remove pathogens and fungus and it’s worth it to start with clean, fresh media!
Thank you for sharing it's really nice
Thank you!
Thank you making this videos the are both informative and entertaining. I recently made some ping seeds successfully but I need to know if they can be stored for a later date or do I have to sow them immediately. Could you guys do a video on seed storage for different plants. Also I have Drosera Regia I need to repot but I’m super nervous to do it. It has a massive root system and I’m sure it is root bound and I don’t know whether or not I should loosen the roots or not
That’s great! You can store ping seeds in the fridge, in a wax baggie and then put that into a resealable plastic bag like a sandwich bag and we add a small silica packet. Ping seeds will have their greatest viability and be easiest to sow within the first month or so of harvesting. We successfully germinate very old seeds but I would recommend sowing them sooner rather than later!
What do you do with the old substrate? I was thinking of sifting out the perlite and reusing it for non-carnivorous plants.
We don’t reuse our old substrate, instead we have a large peat pile in the back where we dump it and another nursery hauls it away for use. I personally will turn it into my garden beds when I repot my carnivores at home!
Does the ping die once it sets seed? Just wondering.
It doesn’t!
I have a question does the repoting every year also apply to the warm temperature pings? I got a primuliflora from you guys last summer and it has a bunch of baby pings in it. It's also in its original pot
They can benefit from it too! You can follow the 1-3 year repotting tip for the temperate and warm temperates as well!
My pings came in sphagnum moss, is this ok to replant them in?
You can! It’s not our favorite but a lot of people love it!
