FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Hello what is the Meaning of big leaves in Venus Fly trap?
My plant since i bought it (1 month ago) , it has been making a lot of new leaves.
It is eating . I fed it a wasp, and a spider in the last 2 weeks and a fly recently.
I use full spectrum leds that i keep on 12+ hours a day.
Can someone give their thoughts? thanks i appreciate any help

I would move those lights much closer to the plants, about 6-8 inches / 15-20 cm above them. That lighting might look bright to you and me, but it's pretty dim for the flytrap and the Sarracenia. These plants grow in direct sun (think corn, peppers, tomatoes, etc.) for 6+ hours a day. They need very bright light.

The Nepenthes in that pic might be okay with this lighting. Then again, it might benefit from brighter light, too. I can't be sure, but it looks like a ventrata. If the leaves develop a slight orange or red tint, that's good. If they turn deep red, that's too much light.
