HI EVERYONE!
So it has been 3 months since I purchased my very first Venus Fly Trap. I followed all of the suggestions on this page to give him (Jabber Jaws) the best home I could and besides the squirrel eating 3 of his traps on his second day with us we have had no issues since! .... Since then he is INSIDE in his own little corner right next to a window that gets just a few hours of direct sunlight (I live in the desert so the sun is HOT!) I have been clipping his stalk regularly and watering him about once a week. for almost almost 2 months he didn't grow any new traps but the last month he has grown 3. I have posted a picture below. I am not to sure what a healthy VFT looks like but he looks great to me! Please give me some feedback on if my system is working or not, and how you think he is looking (health wise)... THANKS SO MUCH!
