Get it out of there now!!!! It will kill it eventually. It does take awhile but it will happen. Never use Miracel Grow. If it says Miracel Grow do not use it.

yeah with mirical gro there is a 100% chance of a dead plant. and ive never had buring roots but what im guessing would happen is alot of ur traps would die off and new ones wont grow back in. so i would get rid of the mirical gro perlit ASAP!

Dude don't use any kinda of Miracle Grow products on you're plants. You may not see the effects now but you will later on.

Can you train a plant to get used to some fertilizer? Probably doesn't make sense but can these plants get used to it?
