Generally, Nepenthes cultivation conducted in the greenhouse by the breeder. But if you want, you can try at home, long known tricks-tricks. Nepenthes is easily cultivated N. alata, N. ventricosa, N. khasiana, and N. sanguinea. All four are highland Nepenthes species. As for lowland PLANTS, the type most easily cultivated relative is N. rafflesiana, N.bicalcarata, N.mirabilis, and N.hirsuta.

Nepenthes plants can be reproduced using a variety of ways. The first is by using seeds. Seeds obtained by pollinate the female flowers with pollen of male flowers. Seed seeding done on the media that sphagnum moss dilembabkan. Humidity should be kept carefully in order not too dry or too moist, so infected by fungi. To improve the quality of aeration and prevent moisture, mixed with sphagnum moss or perlite orchids, ferns (1:1 composition). Seeds will sprout up to two months and it took 3-4 years to reach adult size. Besides being long, this method is less popular because of Nepenthes seed quality generally decreases rapidly immediately after harvesting.

Slips method, the media can be used is to moss or sphagnum moss green for flower arranging. Media is good because it can bind water in large quantities. Slips made by cutting mature plants that have been extended, can be either top or other parts of stems still green. Materials can be slips slips one eye to eye more than five shoots. Remember, to put these cuttings, cuttings in a shaded location but I still get sunlight. You can use paranet to regulate the amount of incoming light. With this method, stem cuttings will take root after 1-2 months, and reach adult size after 6 months. Generally, Nepenthes do not need extra hormones to stimulate the roots. However, in some species, the hormone can help speed up rooting. Excess hormones can cause slips into decay.

Separation chicks can also be done to propagate Nepenthes. Nepenthes generally issued after the plant saplings mature enough. Chicks separated from their parents if you already have their own roots.

Nepenthes can be reproduced by grafting. Pencangkokannya same process as a way of grafting other woody plants. In addition, Nepenthes can also be reproduced by way of “ducking”. The trick is to pile up Nepenthes vine that extends to the planting medium. Part of the shock is the stem segments that have the potential to produce roots. Over time, this section will take root and be ready rundukan Nepenthes results separated from its mother.

Tissue culture, is the most common method used today, especially by the breeder who has a nursery. The reason, how comparatively easy, the production time is shorter, and the risk of failure is relatively small. Production belonging to “mass” could push the selling price of Nepenthes. Therefore, this method also reduces PLANTS decision directly from the wild for sale.
