Dealing with mold in my terrarium?? I just got this terrarium and it's growing mold! Can I spray it with a 50% vinegar solution, or will that be harmful to the plants?

Are there any indirect to low low-light carnivorous plants??

Help! Not sure why my venus flytrap dies off so quickly, it's sitting in a windowsill and I keep it wet. What am I missing??

Purchased this beautiful Drosera Aliciae about a month ago, and they shot up a flower spike! I’ve just let them be, and watered when the soil looked a little dull (from glossy to a matte wet). I have a plant with a mild case of fungus gnats, and my Sundew is reaping the benefit 😅 If I’ve learned anything about them so far - love em’ and leave em’ alone.

Hey guys! So I got this Mexican Butterwort a couple months ago, and she was doing just fine, eating fruit flies and having the time of her life. I brought her back home from college, and she was still doing great, killing a lot more bugs and happy. This morning, I looked at her to water her (recommended from this app), and her leaves/petals looked brown and droopy, almost rotten. I have no clue why it looks like this or what happened to make her rot. What should/can I do to help her? Update: she smells like rubbing alcohol and her settles are getting worse

Any suggestions for absolute beginner carnivorous plants? I'm pretty good at most plants but I've never tried one of these before and would like to start with something durable. I'd likely put it in a terrarium shared with high-humidity species if that helps

Just took home this little guy and I’ve never had a carnivorous plant (with the exception of a Venus fly trap as a kid, which I sadly killed very promptly lol 😢). I’ve done some research and know some general care tips, but does anyone have specific brand or product recommendations for 1) soil for eventual repotting, or 2) food/nutrients if it needs it?

Hi y’all, I wanted to see your recommendations as far as a carnivorous plant goes. I specifically want one that can help me with my fungus knat problem, but I also just want one in general. This is just an add on. I have no prior experience in this category of plants. I’ve read about the butter wort but wanted to know your opinions? And where you recommend I purchase from that you’ve had good experiences with. Thank you!

I bought my first nepenthes on a trip to Longwood Gardens. Can anyone identify the cultivar please?

Brand new pitcher plant owner! Any tips on keeping him alive and happy?

New to being a plant lady. Received this double monkey pitcher plant in Feb. and it's been doing well. I did not repot because I'm scared. I'm wondering if these two plants should be separated? Seems small for the two of them. I'm not getting pitchers yet but am seeing a lot of healthy new growth. Any advice appreciated and feel free to dumb it down for someone who is recently learning to keep plants alive.

I just bought a fly trap from a Nursery. It came in a container that was cylinder shaped. The plant looks a bit droopy and the soil I mixed might be a little too damp still. Any tips to make sure it recovers well. Seems to be under stress

This may be a long shot...... Anyone know where I could buy a cool carnivorous plant in store in SW Missouri? One that's not set up for failure already but not to expensive? There may not be one but I thought I would check...

Hey y’all! I’ve never had a carnivorous plant before but I really want to add some to my collection! Any recommendations for a first plant, or tips for keeping it alive? Thank you!

Hey all! How do you know when a VFT is ready to eat a fly? I know they don’t need food often, but don’t want to underfeed him either. And how do you catch flies?? 😂😂
