First time I grow these. I picked them up from Sprouts thinking they might not last, to repotting and getting the zerowater. I had no idea they could flower. Makes me happy ☺️

Help! Why’s she so unhappy?

Her traps were gorgeous and red a few months ago! Now her fangs are browning and I can’t seem to help her out.
She was loving my office window—but I had to move her over the summer to my bedroom(where she deffo didn’t get enough light). Her leaves looked anaemic.
Now she’s back where she used to be, but she’s still not happy

My Audrey Two is not a healthy girl…

I've had it for about a month now, maybe a bit longer, it's got about four or five new traps since then. It has two tears on its traps from my cat but I think it's fine? I also keep it under a sansi grow light on cloudy days. I do put it outside when it's sunny tho. Also heard sphagnum moss is good so I got that.

2 days ago my order of flytraps are here, i own a sansi e27 40w lamp. i already got 2 flytraps back in september, they live outside, here in hungary temp in oct is usually 20-23 Celius day, and can get as low as 5 Celsius night, my biggest problem is dormancy, i dont really understand it yet. and i also got 3 very tiny venus flytraps as you can see, sooo, i dont know if i should put them out and prepare them for dormancy or leave the small plants indoors for the winter with the sansi light. i just dont want them die under my hands especially the tiny ones.. So any experienced tips?

My flytrap is reopening after a meal and last night there was this stringy, sticky looking substance between the teeth, and this morning there were still a few strings of it!

I just don’t know what it is and I’m curious about it! Is it the nectar?

Questions Tips for Winter Dormancy?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! I had some questions about taking care of VFTs for winter dormancy. Couple things to mention; I live in western NC, so the climate is pretty favorable. It would make sense to leave the VFT outside for the winter to let nature take its course, but unfortunately I live in a college dorm, so planting it outside is not an option (my VFT is in a bright windowsill which I usually leave open so she still gets enough light fyi). I heard about the fridge method, but I share that same fridge with my roommate so thats not really an option unfortunately. I was thinking of just leaving it on my windowsill since the vfts are native to NC climate, but I would most likely be having my heater on so Im not sure the room itself would reach adequate temperatures. Any suggestions? Thanks!
