How about keeping them in a refrigerator over an artificial "winter"?
Could have been possible with a small collection and a dedicated fridge but practically not possible at all in my small apartment setup. My wife will throw me out for sure 😂😂
Ha Ha. I understand your wife's perspective. But, I do know a person who really likes growing Nepenthes pitcher plants where some need very cool growing conditions. He lives in an apartment and converted a refrigerator into a growing chamber to grow his plants. He modified the thermostat and wired it for LED lights. Its pretty cool, but beyond my dedication level for sure.
Wow! Would love to see his setup! Definitely beyond my dedication level too!!
