The red coloration on maroon monster is just absolutely amazing!

I have never tasted a flytraps drool, but it wouldn't hurt someone to try and tell us how it tastes :)

Hahah!
when you say it like that it sounds gross man!
its basically sugar juice though right?
like you would find in a flower
the traps are basically imitation flowers right? O.o wonder if it has special powers :lol: (joke)

definitely one of my favorite clones, the color and size of the traps put together make it amazing

well this pic was when i was acclimating them to sunlight, so I had them inside atm of the pic under my grow setup with all my other plants, right now its outside in full sun in a hanging pot
My light setup is two 48watt t-8s 6400k color temp, three 54watt t-5s 6400k color temp and one 24watt "flora " aquarium bulb which has higher output of red light, where my other bulbs put out more blue idk the temp on that but it doesn't feel any hotter to me,

all are 4ft long, except the 24 watt which is 2ft long
