The Planta app is still telling me to water my Venus flytrap. It’s turning black like it’s going dormant. When should I stop watering it? Shouldn’t the app know? Also, do you really put yours in the refrigerator while dormant? TIA

Hello 👋 Are you using tap water?

No, distilled water only.

I'm still watering mine according to the app but it's not changing colors. I didn't know they went dormant I guess

i have heard of people overwintering their VFTs in the fridge! it’s a real method. do you have pics of what’s blackening? that should help our resident VFT experts

This is what it’s looking like.
