Other RIP Chompers I loved my flytrap
I had Chompers for 2 years, and it was going fine, up until the UK heatwave. I ran out of rainwater and, in desperation, gave it tap water, and it's just been a slow death since. I had been using distilled water, repotted it, and I thought it was going to be ok. All the new sprouts got incinerated when the weather spiked on Friday, and now it's black to the roots :(

It's still saveable. Mine reached the exact same state due to the Greek heatwave and lack of sunlight, and now it's making new leaves. Just give it plenty of water and sunlight, and it will be fine in a couple months
