Well, I just got a Venus fly trap from Bunnings and I have a few questions. Mostly about dormancy.
1. I left my VFT for about an hour as soon as I bought it and I found out that my sister had been feeding it small ants. I heard that you shouldn't feed the traps while in a state of dormancy... my sister fed almost all of them!
2. Is my plant dormant? It has some black leaves hanging around and is not very high. I'll post a picture.
3. There is some sliming stuff growing on my plant! I heard it was just algae and need not to be removed but idk... is it harmful? Is it even algae??
Please help.
