Yep, that's why we're here! Just stick to the basics and your plants will grow well for you!

Question for the sundew experts ( ):
After my sundew has caught (or i drop) a bug in a leaf - and it curls round it - then uncurls again...... Do I pick off the old bug or leave it there?

[BoothEatsBUGS]

For me it depends on how clean you're feeling. I just leave the carcasses. no harm done.

I leave them. Guests can then see that they really DO catch bugs! Adds more interest .

[Ginsburg]

ha ha - thanks. Good point

Bump for update!

^Yeah this is also true, I was misting my dews until the leaves started turning brown, they've come back once I stopped doing that and started tray waterihng them again. Currently working on a hydroponic setup for my dews/pings.

Doh! I didn't know that!!
