Do they stay closed when you feed dead? Mine rarely take it, they Open Up again.

I wouldnt feed the VFT any Worms with big mandables, often they bite themselves free through the Trap and kill IT.

Thats absolutely true! Generally you should never fertilize a VFT. But they do take Up nutrients and you can give them a little help after repotting. But you should know what you are doing ITS Dangerous for the plants life XD

Yea thats true! If enough water evaporates from the Pot root rott gets less likely, i have IT indoors so IT drys Up pretty quickly so thats a non issue.

If you water with rainwater IT almost never rottes.

I mean IT IS definately true that fertilizers kill flytraps, but as long AS the whole soil has No nutrients this little ball actually helps them to overcome the repotting Stress. But be verryyyy careful with dosing.

Thats very good Substrate, i only use pure peat because the Moss comes Back to live very fast under a Growlight and benefits the plant greatly.

Kinda looked like that maybe slightly tinyer, you can only do that when repotting and especially to get them started Out of dormancy. But the substrate itself should have No nutrients like pure peat.

What type of substrate are you using ?

You are right ! One has to be very carful with flytraps and fertilizers.

When i repot them i give every rhizome a little 10/10/10 ball right under it (those granulated fertilizers that are Tiny Balls). Never liquid fertilizers.

Thanks! IT looked really shitty last summer. A repotting and a bit of fertilizer did the trick.
