    Live mealworms for cp's

    Has anyone ever tried using live mealworms that you can buy at petco or etc. to feed to their venus flytraps. I thought that these would be great to hand feed to a CP with some tweezers.

    Top soil dressing?

    I was wondering what people on this board use to decorate the top of their CP soil besides lIVE SPAGHNUM. For example rocks and etc. I would like to do something with the soil, but I have no idea what to do. Thanks!!

    Questions about miracle grow?

    I just got finished with emailing Peter at California Carnes about this. I will post what he has to say, that is if he answers me back. I asked him if he still suggests using fertilizers on flytraps. I also asked him about applying it with a cotton swab like BigCarnivourKid suggested. Thanks....

    Misting flytraps?

    One more question. I have been misting my plants with a spray bottle once in the morning and once at night. I was wondering if this is acually good for flytraps.

    Questions about miracle grow?

    Thanks for all your help. I think I will try it out on one of my common flytraps. I know in the book he says you have to dilute the fertilizer, so I will give it a shot.
