After months of trying to figure it out for these guys I finally have sufficient light!! All it took was 4 weeks after moving to a place with a lot more light and using grow lights. Leaves are big again and taking the shapes and colors they want!!! I love My pings.

I repotted my Nepenthes today and tried to straighten them out a bit with bamboo stakes. Hopefully that encourages them to grow up instead of sideways. I put a liner in these vanda baskets so I’m hoping they don’t dry out too quickly (they are watered at least once and usually twice a day) What do y’all think?

So I just posted in this group just sharing a little update on my Venus flytrap and it brought me to realize I have more then one plant here, so I finally repotted her properly and turns out not only did I have 2 big plants, but I have a baby too!! My bog looks much more filled out now and im so excited to see how these grow.

Today I learned the importance of progress updates and the fact that venus flytraps will rearrange themselves to sprout their leaves. The first picture is from April 7th, just longer than a week ago, the second picture was taken today. I have a new leaflet sticking out about to lay out, a new shoot popping up in the center there, and those 3 big leaves on the side have worked their way closer together towards the other core (on the underside towards the duckweed) and to think i only brought this little guy home 4 weeks ago

I ordered these two sundews from California Carnivores about 2 weeks ago and so far no dew 🫤 I’m wondering if the trip across the US might’ve shocked them? They are getting adequate light and I have them in reverse osmosis water. Should I snip the flowers off to help?

New to carnivorous plants and plants in general. Started a pretty diverse collection. Everything looks to be growing well. With many more on the way.
