Flytraps have been off this year my jaws smiley just rotted out and a couple others they look bad this year not really sure why but it's been rough for them this season
Thanks! ... And yes, more youtube, please. I don't use any other social. RUclips is relatively easy ad enjoyable. Moreover you can always refer to it and spread the word!
Great vfts! I have a question about vft dormancy. I live in Malaysia, a country with tropical climate where the temperature and photoperiod doesn't change all year round. Do vfts absolutely need to go dormant to thrive? Or they can survive if given enough sunlight/growlight without doing dormant?
Yes, if you don't put them through dormancy their growth will start to slow, and after around 3 years they will die off for "no reason". You should look at some videos on "venus flytrap refrigerator dormancy". You basically unpot them and put them in the fridge for a few months.
@@chuapingchuan2611 Ive never done it. As long as you watch a video you should be good. I know hundreds of people that have used it before with little to no issues. Obviously, its not 100% perfect, but neither is a natural dormancy. If any videos you watch dont mention it, make sure you spray them with some kind of fungicides. Fungus can get out of control in a wet place with no air circulation like a fridge.
Do you ever use any fertilizer like Maxsea?
Nice plants, what fungicide did you use that they didn’t like?

@@topazplant Ive read about refrigerator dormancy before. How high is the risk of my vft dieing using this method? Im slightly worried.
