Default Re: Are they start flowering?

Hi ,

I read from the article, drosera still can survive if they didnt trap any insect . The plant will use sunlight as their source to keep alive. .... Of course, if you feed them, they will more do well. I think all CP keeper want their plant nicer and bigger. heheheheh i do as well

You can buy them those bread worm (brownish )but small type. they are reach of protein. So do not feed them much at one time. Your plant cant take it to digest them.

Flowering will always take a lot energy from the mother plant. Your plant will start getting weak if they boosting up flower.

i had experience before with my D.adelea where do not produce the dew. it take me one month to monitor what wrong with my plant as well. What i do is try observe my plant's leaf is growing well or not. Because, it might be the bug disturb your plant or eating the leaf. If this is not happened, i will repot the plant and change the media. do remember always monintor before you do it ya!

hope this is help~

Thanks!

Actually I dun see my Drosera able to trap the insect by themselves although i keep them in outdoor, so that’s way I feeding them. But I feel the small red ants is too small. So that’s why I want go aquarium shop to buy the worm for them. U said that u bought the worm for ur drosera before…May I know that what types of worm u buy?? Is the small red worm which put in the water aquarium or the worm which brown colour and also can use to feed birds? Or other worms??

Actually my plant quite reddish before that. After their middle start grow 1 stalk ( I no sure), they become green. No have any new leaf come out..I will go back edit and upload the picture again.

This Droseras get dew, that’s ok! But another drosera no have enough dew (will show pics when edit)…I also use water tray method to moist that drosere..no know whats wrong with it…

Thanks a lot!!
