hello everyone,
like most of you my plants are asleep, VFTS,
but I always have at least one or two growing in the winter months
under artificial lights,
I use the fridge method way ,
I know most people do not, but I have noticed that as long as I keep
them in front of the fridge and not two wet they seem to do just fine,
I have started a new plant from just a sample of one of my dormant clones,
sample plant was in dormancy for four months and has been growing under
grow lights for about six weeks,
small but looks healthy,
anyway it is possible to have plants growing all year round if the conditions are just right " lighting, water , media , ect"
,
will up date as plant grows.

I think so. I have been keeping mine inside under grow lights during the winter since I first started growing flytraps. If the photoperiod is short then they grow low to the ground in winter in rosettes, opposed to the tall growth they have in summer. I could keep them cold and have them die back to the rhizome but I'm not sure if that's necessary.
