Hi everyone, just joined. I've got lots of questions, but I'll start with my most immediate one now .
So I got this trap a few weeks ago. Things seem to mostly be going well with it. However, I'm uncertain if I've potted it as well as I should.
Right now I've got it in a bowl, actually an old cereal bowl, in the sphagnum moss it came with in the mail. So it's just in sphagnum moss, about 3-4 inches deep. I keep the moss pretty wet, as per the instructions I got with it.
So now after a few weeks of keeping the moss wet and trying to give it as much sun as possible (I keep it outside), the moss is turning green. I assume this is algae growth. Is this okay? Anything I can do to prevent it?
Should I think about drastically changing my potting set up?
Thanks in advance for replies.
