How long does it take for plants to digest their food? my pitcher plant has many little bugs inside the pitcher but none seem to really be decomposing in the digestive acid or whatever the liquid inside it is called. and i’m not really sure how venus fly traps digest their food, do i need to help it in some way? any advice would be appreciated :)
My first VFT I’m thinking she’s ready to come out of the bottle FINALLY 🥰🥰 any tips on potting her would b great I’m excited to see how many plants are in this bottle ik I should put her in a planter with a dome to keep the humidity any other tips would be appreciated thanks
I need help!! My VFT are getting eaten by something. Is it soil mites or spider mites?? Today I was watering them because it has been a few. And in one of their dishes a little white bug was running around. I killed it. Then I noticed this white stuff on the moss!! Mÿ questions are: What are they? Can I use neem on carnivores plants? Do you think it is on my other plants around them? Need an answer asap!! Thanks in advance!
Just received my drosera regia. It’s my first drosera any care tips would help. And should I use the tray method?
My VFT is feeling the love today x
My Drosera and is growing and finally out of shock since repotting.
What can’t you feed to a vft
Where on earth do you get an Venus fly trap we have so many flies it could have a feast
Why doesn’t my VFT want to eat these gnats? It closed down on them but opened back up a day later
My sundew drosera has lost its sticky?? also the ones on the soil are molding/dying and there is a sort of webbing. i think i may have over watered it because i always had the sauser filled with water thinking it would like it since it’s a bog plant. i also don’t have it in front of a window it’s probably a meter away from the window and it’s a west facing window. any info would be appreciated!!
Heres a Lily update🥳
i got my first carnivorous plant yesterday for my birthday. i’ve never had one before so this is really exciting!! i wanted to feed it so i scoured the house and found a dead fly. very fascinating
does anyone have any tips to keep venus fly traps healthy? i went on vacation and came back to my entire plant turning black. i pruned as much as i could and tried to save the roots because they were healthy, but the leaves and traps (even the itty bitty ones) were completely dead. suggestions? this is her after/before.
Another addition to my ever growing collection of carnivorous plants. The pitchers are so big from such a small plant!
how many traps should be active for the plant to be healthy?
I repotted just a little while ago but right now they are enjoying some evening sun!
is my VFT doing good? anything it might need? i just repotted it 2 days ago.
What’s wrong with my VFT??
Hi all! How do I trim my VFT? Just under where the crispy trap, or the whole stem?
Hoping for some help with a recovering staghorn sundew I just got in a plant swap! I only re-potted it ~week ago and it was in rough shape initially so I’m not expecting too much. Just wondering what people think about trimming stems that are black/withering? I’ve held off on trimming anything so far because I don’t want to stress it more but I’m worried the dying leaves are sapping energy. Appreciate any advice!
