Hi, I have some Crimson Sawtooth VFT seeds and for a few weeks now one has been growing! I'm really glad because so far the few that have grown over the winter died...they are just SO delicate.
Now that it's growing, I've noticed something and because I really don't want this one to die, I just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
When I spray it to give it water, it will normally fall to the ground and like get pushed into the ground (and it's not like I'm spraying it forcefully or anything) before I put a tiny stick underneath it which holds it up really well.
Lately it's been growing a little leaf/trap but I'm concerned since whenever I spray it just kind of whips to the side like it's going to break or something.
It got uprooted actually once before (this was because my dad decided he should spray the plants which is why I NEVER let him take care of the seeds now) and was moved a bit, but thankfully it survived that and I covered the root(...? end? tail?) in soil.
Anyways, is this normal, for them to be so delicate? I'm asking because when I was looking at it with a magnifying glass the leaf/stem looked really like idk beat up.
It's on the same 16-hour light cycle as the rest of the seeds, which is what I'm worried could possibly be causing a problem. If so, what should I change for it?
Here are some pics of it:
