Good quality carnivorous plants can be tricky to find. A good grower is the first thing to look for when purchasing plants online. Unfortunately it can take a bit of trial and error when finding a reputable nursery. Each have their own species they specialize in, and depending on the shippers location, the plant might be adjusted to that locations environment. I’ve tired many gowers during the years, below are a couple of the ones that have filled the garden.
New designs, fresh and hot off the printer! @ecken and @dingod have done it again with these awesome new prints.
Dingo keeps the video game theme going with an epic Bob-omb, shown here sporting a Marston Dragon.
Next up is @ecken with the mayan head theme, shown sporting a Chinese Juniper.
The next prints will try to use the biodegradable PLA!
If your interested in what goes into printing, check out the tutorial for setting up a makerbot:
The long wait over at Pixil is over, our Makerbot 3D Printer has arrived!
It took three months to build and deliver but we finally have some really cool garden planters to show off! Checkout the Etsy store to buy
Green, brown, silver, black, white and the clear biodegradable PLA are the colors we ordered so far. Can’t wait to test PLA as planter material for seedlings, and tags.
The boo was design by our web developer and creative lead behind Turn Table Customs, Dingo. He designed it in the browser based CAD site Tinkercad! A tiny Red Bug Pitcher is used to test out the planter. All planters have drainage holes built in
You can see more designs by checking out the planter tag we started on tinkercad.com
Here’s a time-lapse of the tiki print. A Nepenthes Alta is used in the pic.
These take quite a while to print. The Boo took 18 hours to print! Our current print will about take about 25 hours to complete, so we’ll definitely need more makerbots!
