Here is the best caresheet that is found on the web for Grammastola rosea(Chilean Rose Hair):http://www.ucalgary.ca/~schultz/roses.html
Personally, I wouldn't recommend G. rosea as a first tarantula since they tend to be very unpredictable in their habits which can be frustrating for a new...
What you have pictured is not venom. It is most likely coxal excretion. Tarantulas salivate from their "armpits" where the coxal glands are located. This fluid is used in digestion and possibly to excrete waste salts from the body. Its pretty common to see this type of "drooling" after a...

Is it safe to use as a foliar feed? I plan on using a q-tip to apply fertilizer to the leaves. I can't find the recommended orchid fertilizers at the moment and the seaweed extract has worked well for me with other plants as a foliar and root feed.
Hello,
I'm a newbie and just got my first two VFTs from Lowes. I had some trouble finding my first choice in materials and then when I settled on alternatives I was faced with the uncertainty of whether the brands I purchased would be suitable for successful results.
