I was so disappointed I dont have a good growing for my VFT, but those reasons of growing them under shade is CRAP! No wonder they claimed VFT is difficult to take care and that is one reason they sell it at high price.

yes like what David had said
Growing VFT rules
- Give FULL Sun as much as possible
- Dont let the soil media to dry up, and not too wet too
- Dont try to feed it too
- Dont play with their traps
- Prepare their 'bed' when they enter dormancy. <- Important lesson to learn if you are serious in growing VFT
- Dont let the soil media to dry up, and not too wet too
---> I personnally think that it is difficult to maintain such situation, especially for me that sometime lazy or forget or no time to water my plant. So, I keep my VFT with water tray method with 1/4 of VFT pot. So far, they like it...

For dormancy, I must learn from you guys...
