Hey all. I've had my flytraps in the garage for the winter- they went in around October 27th.
We are experiencing a bit of a cold snap right now at -9c and -18c with the windchill.
I went out to check on the soil dampness (only been watered twice while out there) and the poor things are frozen solid. The petioles and traps feel fine- still has a good amount of green and no visible frost on top. But the pot itself is rock hard.
They did need water so I brought them inside- put them back in the sun and filled their saucer up to water them (unfortunately my garage gets next to no sunlight but my options are extremely limited).
Kind of wondering what my next move should be. I don't want them to wake up early and cut their dormancy time down but I don't want them to perish in the garage either.
Any advice is appreciated!
