Hello. I purchased a venus flytrap from a local chain store. I feed it wax worms. The first 2 feeds, not simultaneously, saw the traps digest and open after only 4 days. Following feeds have seen the traps remain closed for weeks on end. The plant seems healthy. Green. Not leafy. New shoots sprouting regularly. Any ideas? What might be an avg' amount of time for traps to remain shut for digestion? Thanks.
Thanks so much for the information you put in your video. I just got my first ever. Venus flytrap from a reptile exhibit our show in vallejo, california.
I have a Red Dragon that I bought from California Carnivoros and several nice typicals. I name them all and love taking care of them. I live in the Piedmont area of NC and they do well.great video.
I have what you’re talking about right now at Home Depot Venus flytrap and I love her so much I’m looking for her to be just beautiful too. This is my first one and I’m very conscientious about it. And I want her to be beautiful.
Amazing looking plants! Your video answered an important question for me: mixing peat and moss. I'm trying pure moss now as the peat I can buy near me seems to contain nutrients. When I tested the runoff from it, it came in at about 200 ppm. I'm not sure if that is normal.
My venus fly trap has caught something, a fly, it’s body is trapped. It’s head and wings are sticking out and it’s wriggling trying to escape but so far failing to escape.
Awsome plants. Exilent info. I got a typical last year, and it did realy well, so we'll infantry that I picked out some more interesting ones. I'm going to give your tips a try and will be super happy if I get half the results you did. Thanks for the tips.
I adopt ill and some times abused puppies, I have adopted blind puppies and other handicapped dogs. I don't know of a single person that says they want a sick puppy to grow it into a strong healthy dog. Sorry I don't agree with you on that point. Your plants are beautiful and I learned a lot about growing them. Thank you
I find that the roots of the Venus flytrap get tangled up in the long fiber moss which makes it hard to separate them from the media that they are planted in . But still a good video
How did you put these plants through dormancy? All your plants look extremely healthy and obvoisly you've taken very good care of them. I live in Dallas and have 4 VF's doing well so far but haven't seen their first dormant period yet. Thanks!
