Hi Bernard,.

I have two copies of your A.gigas clone.
At the beginning I had planted them in peat substrate enriched with much Perliten. Here are they rotted me away almost; then I tried some Sphagnum. There, the tubers are although not grown, but also not entered. The Sphagnum in the course of time is always ver matscht me and I was not satisfied.
Only when I planted them last year in pure Cocohum, they grew well.
The tuber of the plant from my image (s.Bild of the 06.10.2017) has, after all, originally not much,
a size of 8cm diameter and weight of 170gr. achieved.
I even dug out just the bulb and she is healthy and starts to form roots.

I mean even somewhere to have read that even dead Sphagnum has an aseptic effect.

Many greetings
Ortwin

Hi Ortwin,.

8 cm sounds good - chapeau!

Did you make a picture?

Good luck with the continuing culture!
I think that I now sometimes order Kokohum... ;-)

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Michael,.

Classically, there are pellets from white peat (Jiffy pots), but you move with the times and there they also made of coconut fibre

I was referring with Kokohum rather on the briquettes, using Andrew and Ortwin...

Hi Bernard,.

I'm very satisfied with Sphagnum, but this goes pretty much in the money, therefore I will test even the Kokohum. I consumed last Briquette for my pleione unfortunately just a week ago...

Hi Bernard,.

I didn't take a picture; and I again dig no longer want them as she drives already roots.
But the tuber was very healthy; no single lazy point.

Many greetings

It was impressive!

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3888 index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID 3889 = index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3892

This is (again) my clone BS 4...
Same accession number was on the label (2006-6-32) as in the flower last year, but I don't know whether that was also the same bulb, because the mountain garden has several plants of the genotype.

The size of the inflorescence was approx. 2.10 m... index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3891

The smell was amazing - my wife has, after she made the images immediately leave the room... :icon_slash:

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3890

The following information was shown the inclined visitors...

index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3893 index.php? page = attachment & attachmentID = 3894

Happy viewing, Bernhard.

Really amazing pictures. Spectacular :icon_eek:

also I must do something. Already impressive, when you can be there live locally.
I think the closest I the Botanical Garden would be Munich, which has large Amorphophallus.
Must I go out. Also the olifaktorischen factor for :-D

Amorphophallus in the bucket right next to the A. gigas. The large, half sheet withered the - what is it for? Also an A. gigas?

Hi Ortwin,.

I got still some info... - Unfortunately, the staff ceiling in the Hill Garden is so thin that not everything can be weighed and measured...
But the head of growing knew that the tuber was 23-25 cm in the Durchmasser and it's lt write the curator probably a plant, that the rocks 2006 by the me has gotten as big seedling plant. Needed so 11 years to bloom the first time... It is also not the tuber, which last year has flourished.
The mountain garden has a total 3 rel large gigas; the leaves are always so to 2 m tall.

You have therefore probably still a little patience, to yours so far is... - how big and how old yours is for now?

Edit: Ooooops, is Yes above in your post... I no longer had on the screen...

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Bernard,.

Thank you very much for the Info; mine is just roots and slowly begins to exorcise. Digging out to weigh the tuber has now resulted in a delay. With rising temperatures, it will still create also the shoots.

And Yes, it will take up to anthesis yet...

Many greetings
Ortwin

Hi Michael,.

so there can be only the hat, when I think how your loading manure in the room are!
BTW, I think your gigas are now more...

Almost a pound after 4 years... :icon_shocked:

Is the #1 a single growing plant/tuber from the outset?
Or should that be a part of the tuber, which is expelled with 7 leaves?
I not found just in the other thread that - apparently because the 7-leaved apparently geteit has 3 tubers...
When was the expelled as the tuber with 7 leaves is - I find in the other thread nothing about...

Happy growing, Bernhard.

Hi Bernard,.

You're already Papa of the gigas, I'm only adoptive caregivers!

The tuber #5 had sure several sheets in the October 2017 and is since then not more fully retracted. I don't know when exactly she has divided unfortunately with security because I was 2016 probably too busy to record well.
Of the tubers, only a #5 with 168 g. among the divided tuber.

The #1 was always individually in the pot. #1 also means that she gets always the best course, therefore, same old tubers with me can have very different weights. #4 and #5 is technically rather superficially treated unless she is small enough to get even a place in the Sun front between the large. Most have these but have laengten growth and small tubers. The tubers are backup so rather, because more space is not there.
Why the #4 is down less than I can not say with certainty but I suspect that it is because she was in Seramis 2017, while all others were already in Sphagnum.

Love greetings
Michael

Hi Michael,.

overall very impressive!
I think with the result, you're one of the most successful rooms gardener, what's tropical Amorphophallus in temperate latitudes.
(Where the hot urban climate in Vienna could... play a role)

Seramis vs Sphagnum - you're completely away from the Seramis?
Also for titanum?

Happy growing, Bernhard.
