I just got this little goober, any tips on how to take care of him? I have never owned any carnivorous plants before and know this is a stretch in my ability to keep plants alive. I know they like rainwater/distilled water, need tons of humidity and lots of light. Anything helps!

So I have this nepenthes.. no idea of the exact variety, he’s grown a ton in the past few months but won’t develop any more pitchers. Does anyone know why they do this? Also if you know the variety that’d be awesome. There are pictures of the tiny pitchers in the plant tag.

I’m thinking of getting a Venus flytrap as my entrance to the carnivorous side of plants. Is there anything I should know before hand? I know they’re sensitive to unfiltered water and need tons of humidity and light. Anything helps!

Why is it turning black! First time having one of these so I’m a big noob. :(

Pods are looking a little dry and dad is this okay? Should I be worried? Is there anything I need to change?

Here is my buddy Biter. I had him sitting in distilled water for bottom feeding. He got black edges on his aerial biters so I contacted the doctor who said overwatering. So I took out water tray and took plant out of pot and gently squeezed excess water out and replaced in pot. Here is a picture of today’s plant. No longer wet, but I have another question. I feed Biter these Cubes of gel, which he loves. Should I continue giving him one cube a week or wait. Not sure. Last gave cube 1 week ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!

My precious

Soooo… my cat ate my Venus fly trap when I had my back turned, the little brat. I haven’t touched it other than keeping its water reservoir filled, but any ideas if this is gonna die on me or will it produce more leaves/stems? Is there anything I can give it to help it out? Poor fellow.
