It's been a few years but circling back. Every flytrap I've had exploded in growth by feeding them freeze dried bloodworms. You can buy them off the shelf at pet stores in fish food isle. I usually notice subsequent traps sizing 1.5x growth of the last fed trap.
These dried bloodworms can be smashed with your fingers to make a thin flake that can drop into even the smallest trap with some tweezers. The small photo here is a trap about 3mm big (1/10th of an inch). I've seen the smallest plants triple in size over only a few months of time. Not sure if this little one is a seedling or some other growth from an existing plant next to it but it will be interesting to track since I've never raised one from a baby like such. Curious to see if it will be a fully mature plant in only one season.
These are Big Mouths.
