Hi,

my name is Antonio Matosevic and I'm from Croatia. I bought my first Venus Fly Trap just a few hours ago.
I live in a flat, on the 6th floor and I don't have a place to keep my Fly Trap, except my bedroom. I'll try to ensure that it has enough light and water.
My Venus Fly Trap is dormant, and I'm not sure whether I sholud repot iduring dormancy.
Besides that, I have a question about light. Is 2,5-3h of direct sunlight exposure and additional 3 hours of fluorescent light exposure enough for my Venus Fly Trap?

I hope someone will answer my questions.


Thank you.
Antonio :)

Yes, that should be enough. If you notice that the growth is long and spindly and weak, just give it more light.

Pozdrav Antonio!
Potrazio sam te na facebook-u ali je previse Antonia Matosevica :)
Pa sam napravio acc ovdje.
Htio bi porazgovarati s tobom o biljkama jer stvarno pojma nemam o njima a volio bi ih naruciti.
Kakva su tvoja iskustva i koliko ih je tesko uzgajati.
