Hello all.

Well thought I should sign up here at last, I have been growing Drosera for some time and I'm now moving on to VFT. I have just started my first set of seeds (a lie the first set went mouldy) and I have seen the first true leaf come in today. I'm still something of a windowsill grower and living in the UK I have had to put my new VFT under an LED bulb for now, it looks like it is doing the job but I know in time it is just going to be way too small for fully grown plants.

This is the point where I tend to panic :shock: , got the little things to germinate (easy part) now I have to keep them alive!

I have read as much as my mind could take on things like light and dormancy and things like don't poke the traps but I'm sure I will be running back here with many questions.

A (fuzzy phone pic) below of my first little muncher.
