Just bugs. Never really feed them. seems to have a lil eco system of its own.
Fungus gnats seem to live in the peat moss medium. The plant eats them.
No gnats on the mj plants. Guess they light the flytrap more. All I do is water it. The plant was pitifully small when I first got it 6 months ago. I don't really take good care of it. Its too self sufficient.

Thats cool, get a pitcher plant, they are cool as well.

Awesome accessory to your collection :-))

I've never actually seen one myself, looks really cool.

Where'd you get the seeds for that?

+rep for the cool plant ;-)

Cool plant UDP....do the leaves die off each year? I had a flytrap that I thought died, but it may have just gone into a hibernation (oops)...I fed mine a couple of flies, and that may have done her in - but not sure.

To bigfan - my venus flytrap lost all of its leaves every year in the winter. all that was left was a bulb under the dirt, but the leaves grew back in the spring.

well...then my flytrap will bloom in that big dumpster in the sky, damn...thanks for the confirmation that I'm a killa.

I pick her up at Lowes for 3 to 4 bucks.
I didn't make it flower, it did it on its own. Since I keep it in the grow room under a humidity dome it should never loose all its leaves. Its about 3 times bigger than when I first got her if thats any help.

Thats awesome. I used to have a little venus flytrap.

so if i go and get one how do i kno how to take care of it? i mean when i started growing weed i did research on the net and that brought me here, this is where i learned everything i kno. im sure there isnt a venus flytrap forum that can teach me. do they come with instructions? lol

[Urdedpal]

Yes they do^
Its easier than growing weed. Just supply light, warmth, and humidity. Also water when needed.

[phubar]

they will eat anything that touches 1 hair twice or 2 hairs within like 10 secdonds

cross breed your plants and the fly trap
you will get bud that bites
