Default Re: VFT dormancy

Photo of my sleeping VFT:



Unfortunately, I think it slept too long that maybe it will not wake up anymore, I just checked and the leaves that are left are falling off, I hope that maybe some plantlets will sprout from the leaves, and continue the "line" But it doesn't look good.

What did I do wrong? Well I have always suspected that it has been sleeping, but it was sleeping for some time now, so I repotted and put under water tray. After maybe 3 months, I checked, nothing really no new growth, etc. and when I checked recently, there is "rotting" smell. Thus, I am not so confident.

Someone said, maybe I should have tried Ref. Dormancy... Maybe I should have, but too late now. I do have 1 plantlet from that plant that is still alive though. This was my first VFT so very dear to me!
