Neat! Dentate? Or Vigorous?

Yes they are in GREAT shape, next you have to do is sunlight.

 

[geffcardo]

[Gilgamesh]

Hi, I have a couple of pictures I'd like to post!
Not quite sure how tho.
I'll give it a go with the file attachment bit.

 

[Gilgamesh]

Yay, it worked.
Here's another!
This one doesn't seem to get enough light.
The traps are smaller and just green.

 

[geffcardo]

yea my new traps are getting smaller too
they used to b 1inch big
but now none of the new ones get close to an inch
but your flytraps nice
they're all spread around

I thought you said you were having problems Geff? That plant loks fine to me

 

[Gilgamesh]

Can over feeding cause the traps to get smaller?
I fed mine quite a bit when I first got it.
It seems with mine it may be lack of light, as the traps have no red coloration.
However the leaves (not the traps) are a lot broader then they were which I would have thought meant good light levels.
Perhaps it is the stress of new surroundings?
Alvin Meister, I see you are in the U.K.
Do you grow your venus flytaps in the natural light?
Are their traps big and red?

 

[geffcardo]

that pic was taken 2 weeks after i got it
its been over a month since then
and thats when the problems came in

Did u get that from walmart buddy?

I got mine at walmart too...in a similar pot. I was wondering if repotting is necessary.

 

[geffcardo]

i got it at green thumb nursery
although when walmart or lowes get new shipments their flytraps are nice and red, but they dont sprout out too long
