Re: Growing outdoors or under cover
We grow our VFTs mainly in LFS & this doesn`t splash easy even in our heaviest rainfalls. I know of a VFT collector who just places newly separated tiny VFTs into LFS & exposes them to rains etc without much harm. If you grow them in peat, perhaps you could top off the peat with LFS ? VFTs once conditioned to raindrops won`t bother to snap shut.
In Asia, we are adviced not to expose our VFTs to afternoon sun especially the hottest times of the day ie 2-5 p.m. Not sure how it works for you over there. Filtered a`noon sun ( mimicking tall strands of grass ) would be quite ok.
