Default Re: Something Wrong with my Venus?

Hi blitzx002, your VFT doesn't looked getting enough sunlight to me, the new traps are getting smaller! Yours probably a green form, so it won't gain any red colouration no matter how intense the lighting is.
Where did you place your pot? I agreed with Hongrui that VFTs don't neccessary need high humidity to thrive, as long as the media is still wet, it will be fine with the hot sun in our climate.
I grow my VFTs quite dry (without water tray), only water when the top media is dry. But I grew them in peat - perlite. Those who grow them in sphagnum moss don't practise this as sphagnum moss can dry out quite fast.
