I just use my wife’s cotton makeup tissues to line the bottom of my pots. Saves on sphagnum and does the same job:)
Just got hear I was waiting all week for this
I’m glad you enjoy the videos!
You are all so lucky, must be heaven to live in a Country with a proper Summer. Unfortunately i live in hell called "Northern Ireland" all we get here is Rain & Storm 300+ days a year. If you try to plant something in your Garden , it will be destroyed within a week by another storm. Everything has to be done indoors here . That's why my Home is full of Plants and Terrariums . I recently started to grow Fly Traps
Awesome! Can’t wait to see how they grow! 😁👏🏽
Thank you! I’m excited too 😁
Try “landscaping cloth” or weed barrier sold to prevent weeds getting into a landscaped area! It allows the water through and retains all the potting soil!! Way more efficient than using sphagnum moss, just saying 👍🏼
Hi I have not watched you for a while but your channel is doing really good and it’s growing! My sundew is doing amazing but winter is coming soon so what will I do when winter comes?
Luke Gaming depends on the sp
Which species do you have? Some need dormancy and some will continue like normal
I want some drosera prolifera seeds its so pretty! 😍
They are! But they don’t make seeds very easily
What type of “sand” are mixing with the peat moss?
Silica sand
Can I use cocopeat with perlite for my drosera seeds? Tap water or distilled water?
distilled
Why don't use some fiber glass fly screen at the bottom? I use just peat to get mine started. I boil the peat and I use soft drink bottles cut in two to make terrariums. I drill holes at the bottom where the bottom of the bottles hit the ground, so I can sit them in shallow dishes. The tops of the bottle can be removed more and more after time too, to acclimate them to the house humidity, which is above 70 percent because of my fish tanks. Once they acclimated fully then I can plant them up to their permanent homes.
Cool video
Thank you!
All of the perlit and sand in you links are sold out.
Oh damn! Thanks for letting me know. I will check it out and probably change it then
What happend to that bird that woudent be quiet 🤣🤣🤣
Lol I think he’s gone now! The neighbors moved.
Mattyb, like I said before, I grew my Venus flytrap to a GIANT size and it took care of that bird :D.
I'm trying to find some Drosera Capensis Sundew seeds. Or Cape Sundew, thr giant. Any kind of help will be much appreciated
Do you think adding Springtails to a seeded (not yet germinating) Capensis terrarium would be alright? They'd have approx 4' of peat/perlite before the drainage layer. Would they possibly eat or otherwise compromise the seeds at the surface? I know people have positive (or at least, not negative) results with Springtails in terrariums housing both Venus and Sundews... But I'm a little concerned about how small the Capensis seeds are. BUT....on the other hand, the Springtails really only want "decaying" stuff and mold, so the seeds might be safe as long as I don't overwater/mold them ( which would be bad anyway) I'm thinking? Perhaps it would be a good idea to supplement the Springtails diet with some Nutrional Yeast in areas not full of seeds, to keep them happy and reduce any chances that the seeds would be consumed?? Also, don't feel bad for not being able to spot the seeds in that pile of sand, lol. I got an order of pure seeds this week and it looks like a bag of dust haha!
You are spot on! The seeds are alive, they will not get damaged by springtails. However I would wait it out a bit until the seedling have grown a little just to be on the safe side, but not like this will actually make much of a difference. And yes! Drosera seeds are literally like dust 😂
May I ask ( what is a good website to buy the seed from? I live in Australia too)
Ah man! It’s difficult to find really good sites in Aus. Is there anything you’re looking for specifically? I could help you out if I have the seeds of the species
Hi I am an Aussie too look for Aussie sellers on EBay for seeds. Also look at Australian Orchids Au they sell this one as a plant for $10 Drosera capillaris Carnivorous plant Sundew Garden insect eating 80MM POTS
Hope that helps
Can you use 100% sphagnum moss to sow them? That's all I have
Yes if that’s all you have chop it up into fine sphagnum for good seed contact
@@TheFlytrapGarden thanks, I started last weekend so hopefully I'll have little sprouts soon
You’ll soon see why twirlin your sphagnum was a bad idea.
Where do you buy your seeds from please post a link.
You’re so pretty!
Thank you:)
Can I use Vermiculite instead of perlite?
No, vermiculite is best only for pinguicula
Hi. I am new in growing carnivorous plants and I have my d.burmanni sprouts already. I am not using artificial lights and greenhouse, I just put in in my window for sufficient lights.. I hope I'm doing it right 😅
Hi. You should try to move them outside if you can, somewhere the gets a lot of sunlight. As much as possible is best!
Dude I live in a tropical country where it's sunny everyday.. will it be ok? It feels like frying them under the sun if I do so 😅
Binoni E. Hmmmm Phillipines? I’m not too sure then. I know they need as much sunlight as possible, so maybe try find a place like that? Even bright shade?
@@TheFlytrapGarden yeah.. ok bud.. onto it. Thanks 😊👍
Thank you for your video, I’ve tried following all your videos from cold stratification to growth. Does it matter if I place my seedlings under one of those pink/purple t8 lights the whole time or should I switch it to a white full spectrum light after germinating? Thank you.
I think those lights are a personal preference. Best to make sure they’re give off enough lumens and correct wavelengths. I’m not very good with lights i never use them
@@TheFlytrapGarden thank you.
@@TheFlytrapGarden would it be too much to ask for assistance with growing sundews? I’ve seen all your videos and just can’t seem to understand why my sundews aren’t creating dew when I have them in the same amount of water that you showed us and with a humidifier and air circulation inside my terrarium.
I have the same exact substrate of peat moss, perlite and sand with long fiber sphagnum moss and only use clean drinking filtered water.
@@MenacingRabbit send me a message on Facebook or Instagram and I’ll help you out :)
@@TheFlytrapGarden I’m in Los Angeles, California. I’m not sure where you’re at but I’ll reach out to you on Instagram. I dumped Facebook a while back. Thank you and we will speak soon.
If you spray the soil after having sown the seeds, don't you risk blowing away the seeds, especially when they are very tiny?
If your soil is moist enough, the seeds should stick to the soil and the spray on top must also be fairly gentle too :)
I bought 10 seeds for 9 rand
That’s such a good deal!
are they toxic ?
Carnivorous plants are poisonous?
Did I say that?🤔 I don’t remember haha
