FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I recently purchased some Venus flytraps online and one of the traps came fed but it turned completely black so I trimmed the plant that turned black, I'm not sure if my other traps are okay or if they're just going through a dormancy stage. Please help. Thanks!

did the seller give you any info? looks like it might be a division, but will take time to recover

Your plant looks healthy, it may be dormancy.

Yes the seller did give me some info but I'm getting a little worried about them, I'm not sure how often I should water them.

Keep the substrate moist, but not wet damp. You will learn how to water them, but it takes some time.
I recommend reading some articles on http://www.flytrapcare.com/

The plant in the photo looks fine. Just be sure to give it as much sunlight as possible and do not keep the soil too wet, but just moist.

Thanks for all the good advice!

Sorry, I wrote wet instead of damp. I was probably already thinking about something else
