Hey folks, I'm from Trinidad, of the twin island country of Trinidad and Tobago located in the West Indies (Caribbean)... nice warm country where we only have two main seasons: Dry season and Rainy season. I recently joined Terraforums mostly because growing carnivorous plants is pretty new to...

Last year I used to culture d. hydei for my cp's but the job was very tedious and eventually a native fruit fly contaminated my culture. However the results I had were very good and I want to continue to feed my plants and pick up where I left off but with a larger insect. Eventually I came...

Bee growing Neps and other carnivores for about six years now. I grow in a small tent I made out of three grow lights and a plastic four shelf unit. N. Ventricosa was my first Nep. Since I've added a Miranda..... And I received for free several dying plants from the local marijuana supply...

Life has settled down a bit and I divided plants today. I have about 7 medium to large Sarracenia alata from Stone County, MS which can get a nice red in the fall. I also have a massive Sarracenia catesbai with about 4 mature growthpoints. I am looking for mature Venus fly traps and temperate...

Hello! I recently just got back into CP's, and got a Venus Fly Trap about two months ago, among others. I realize it is now time for it to go into a dormancy period, but I was wondering if the fridge method was necessary in my case? I live in NorCal, Santa Clara area, and the temperature during...

Hello, I'm in Santa Clara, CA and I am just getting back into CP growing! I'm 22, when I was quite a bit younger I had a small collection, but school and sports got in my way and I had to give them away. I'm getting back into it now, and have just purchased a Fly Trap (Traditional, necessary...

Hello all! I have a feeling that I am just doing one thing wrong that my sundew does not like, however I am not sure what it is. To give you some background, about 7 years ago I used to own multiple sundews, Drosera Capensis Albinos and Pygmys, as well as a couple of different Nepenthes and...

While checking on my d. Scorpioides guess what I saw?! He did get away later that night though. http://s64.photobucket.com/user/tommyr2006/media/Plants/MVI_1577_zps19d423c4.mp4.html <embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullscreen="true"...

Hey all (for the second time in 24 hours..), The first CP I've ever bought was a VFT from a supermarket, but besides one thats growing on the other side of the country at my Mom's pad, I don't have a single fly trap. I'd love to try my hand at growing one and pay homage to the plant that got me...

I did today while I was pruning and it is hilarious.......I seen a green bottlefly on the edge and I was willing it to fall in and it was there one sec and gone the next. the fly tried and tried to get out bouncing back and forth against the pitcher and finally did a 'hail mary' shot nearly...

I read that Venus Fly Trap 'Alien' "is a year-round low growing plant". In other words, it has no dormancy. Is that true? Are their any varieties that lack a dormancy?

Hello all, I used to have a few CP but it's been a long time since I've kept any. I've recently had some fruit fly problems and the idea of CPs catching all the flies was all the excuse I needed to get back into keeping CPs! I still haven't got any yet, but I hope to change that soon! I've...

I know vft's can not be left out in freezing weather. My problem is I have no place to put them in the winter where they would get the temp and light needed to hibernate. My basement is heated at about 65 degrees even on the window sill. I did the refrigerator method last year and they survived...

Thought I would make a game out of this for those interested. I have about 20 typical Venus flytrap seeds left. If interested you will simply have to guess what my favorite movie is! Main character is Tiva. She owns terr who is her pet. This is an animated movie. First person that responds...

i've had my venus fly trap for two months now and it's been doing awesome, shooting up new traps left and right and the leaves were a nice bright green. but all of a sudden, my new sprouting traps turn black before they are able to open, and the existing leaves are starting to turn yellow/pale...

Hi there everybody! I'm very happy to find this forum out there and can't wait to become more evolved in it. I currently have a little setup with my old reef light. So yesterday I planted some 80 different Venus fly traps So today I received some more seeds and they were my sundews. I got close...
