@ Seb: It seems that you are using a different mix than the one Jan suggests. What are you using?

Hello !...recipe is top secret ;-)... but just for you I can do just an exception :rollhappy:

fine quartz sand, fine pouzzolan, manado, a substrate for aquarium that really has no name but managed well to land orchids and charcoal form my chimney ...that all...and a lot of prayers ! :wink:
 
Seb, what kinds of media are you using? Looks like pumice-like stuff, charcoal, sand, but there are some small red clay like materials, which I don't know what it is.

(oops, I didn't see the 2nd page, where you answered it).

What! No pixie dust? :rollhappy:

Best of luck to both of you, and more importantly to the seedlings. Keep us informed no matter what happens - the more information, the better.
 
Two of three protocors stopped but one is started to grow and turned to green, about 1,5 cm "tall" at this moment. I think others will die, but I will be happy if "only" this one will survive.
 
I keep it in semi-shade, just like phrags. I saw few pics about its habitat, I think it gets much light in nature, as I could see well it grows in relatively opened areas.
