Default anybody familiar with growing venus fly traps?
has anybody ever grown them?

if you have, do you know what color temperature in kelvins i should have a fluorescent for artificial light?
or should i just use several smaller bulbs with varying temperatures?

also, i want to build a terrarium and get a few more of these.

would a small fishtank with about 1/3 to half full with soil work? i will put a top on it for humidity control... i know what soil to use and how to grow them in general

any help greatly appreciated

I would think they need a lot of humidity. They grow wild around here, and they're always in very damp areas.

here ya go

Hi --

I have about 80 Venus Flytraps I didn't sell this year and I keep them in my greenhouse in full sun and about 60-70% humidity. They need to be put into about 1/2 inch of either distilled or rain water. If your tap water isn't very alkaline, ph 7 or a little lower, then you can sit it out overnight to lose the chlorine and use that to water them.

Remember that Venus Flytraps require a dormancy during winter. Let them be exposed to the cold in Fall as low as 40F for some days and the tops will die off. Then you can store the bulb (or the whole pot if small enough) in a ziplock bag in your fridge freezer compartment until Spring.

Let me know if you need any more help.

Bob
