i got an idea on feeding

[Joe Dirt]

i was wondering if i could let one trap eat while the others are open, and as soon as that trap gets done, feed another trap, and so on and so on. is that a good idea?

Yes you can. But it takes 1-2 weeks for a venus fly trap to digest it's food. If you feed it to much it could do it harm. Also do not feed it any human food as this kills the plant. Only feed your venus fly trap insects and some grubs, if you do do so, then only feed it 2-3 times a month. you don't even have to feed it anything, and just grow it as any other plant.

Anyone correct me if i am wrong.

I would say 1-2 weeks for digestion.
