# I just cut off a flower from my VFT and before I did all of my traps…

I just cut off a flower from my VFT and before I did all of my traps look very droopy and I think it was because all the energy was going to the flower dose anyone have know when the traps will start to look less depressed

Have you tried giving it some humidity

If it’s not too late, it will take a few days to spring back. The flower definitely takes away energy from the traps. Make sure you water your VFT appropriately though. It needs humidity or consistently moist soil
