Hello from Pittsburgh, PA.
Just purchased a few VFTs from the Fly Trap Store yesterday and I'm eagerly awaiting my shipment. Decided to check out the Forums for some support and info. These are my first VFTs, so I'm hoping I made the right decision in which specific breed/strain to purchase.
I was looking for larger, and fast growing plants, so I bought (1) Vigorous, (1) Czech Giant, and a mystery box consisting of (5) plants. I couldn't decide what I wanted for sure, so I'm letting FTS make the decision for me.
I plan on using a mix of peat, coir, vermiculite, and some perlite for moisture control, for the substrate. I am going to plant the Vigorous and Czechs separately, and the mystery box plants all together in a larger planter. Will this be okay?
Besides awaiting my new carnivorous plants, I tend to my carnivorous fish. I have 10x Pygocentrus Nattereri (Red Belly Piranha) and 1x Serrasalmus Rhombeus (Black Piranha). So I feel these plants will feel right at home in my collection.
