Question
Hello, i just had a question regarding when to bring in my plants.  Currently the temps are 50Fs at night, 70Fs during the day which have cooled off a lot from last week.  i have highland nepenthes, 1 n. caesar, few drosera, and mexican pings growing outside currently.  i know highland neps like the warm days cool nights but the days are starting to become pretty cool too.  I was just wondering should i leave them out a little longer or bring them in? my zip is 14424 if you would like to check the weather.  

Thanks
dustin

Answer
Hi Dustin,

Your temperatures are similar to ours right now.  Just watch the trend.  If it looks like you're going to start having temperatues in the low 40's, time to bring plants in.  The Nepenthes will be the most sensitive, the others being less so.  Many Drosera and Mexican butterworts experience temperatures in the 40's at night routinely.

Good Growing!
