    I lost my aquarium full of Lowe’s Flytraps I’d dragged around and put in dormancy for about 20 years when I finally put them out with my sarracenia. One hard freeze and they died. This year I’ve just discovered cultivars! I literally cried when I opened a DCXL cross Bigmouth. It’s freakin HUGE. And red ones! I really hope I can keep the alien alive. They are all outdoors, but my bog pot building has improved and I just moved them into the partial shade to not sunburn them. I put them out last night, so this video was perfect timing. 💚

      So, in a way losing your typicals was a blessing because it led you to cultivars! And now your carnivorous plant journey is about to get much more expensive! Also more rewarding but definitely more expensive! Lol.

    • @CarnivorousPlantsHub
      @CarnivorousPlantsHub  4 месяца назад +2

      Ya... birds and squirrels. I think the bird was trying to pull the flytrap for their nest. The entire plant was uprooted and sitting on the table. I think it broke the roots as they were short. Oh well. They are replaceable.

    That really does look cool! Great tip at the end as well. I accidentally killed most of my flytrap seedlings last year and only have 7 in their 2nd season. But from this year's seeds I so far have about 70 seedlings! Just learning and trying again :)

    • @CarnivorousPlantsHub
      @CarnivorousPlantsHub  4 месяца назад

      They can be tricky, especially cultivar to cultivar. Seedlings have always given me a bit of trouble too. I just always try again!

    Question: are springtails bad for fly traps? They have taken over my peat and perlite mix. Assuming it's because they are constantly moist and therefore fungus develops with they feed on. Can't seem to find a straight answer online whether they are a problem or not. If they are, best way to deal with them?

    • @CarnivorousPlantsHub
      @CarnivorousPlantsHub  4 месяца назад +1

      Springtails are amazing! They do not impact carnivorous plants negatively at all. I've had several colonies of springtails living with my plants. I've never had an issue. They only eat rotted material, they leave the healthy stuff alone.

    Ive had an alien for 2 yrs and its a slow grower as far size.
    Q. How do you know if the blackening on the traps are natural or if something is wrong?

    • @CarnivorousPlantsHub
      @CarnivorousPlantsHub  4 месяца назад +1

      If it's an older trap, you should be okay. Older traps turn black and die regularly. If it's a relatively new trap or a trap that hasn't opened, this is a bad sign. Could be numerous things. Most common thing I've experienced is rot.

    • @Doggmatic_
      @Doggmatic_ 4 месяца назад +1

      @CarnivorousPlantsHub I may be on the safe side. It rained alot these past few days and it over watered my plant. I'm sure it'll be OK. Thanks

The fact that you went from one to now 3 makes me so happy! I just want people to realize how amazing these plants are. They are tricky at first but once you get it down, they are so rewarding!
