FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Good morning everyone.I live in an apartment,i keep my 2 ftp on the window still,the sun is not very bright (not this period).My 2 question is : -what is the best metod of removing dust from leaves(with a brush,not afecting the plant?,or blow,opening window is not efective,even if i do sometimes.) -i must put water until it remains in the tray? Because it is absorbed in a matter of minutes.Thanks

i guess the best way is by blowing or just using a finger.
you dont need to put that much water. just so it completely soaks and a little bit of water remaining

perhaps dipping the plant upside down in pure water?

Then after the soil is soaked the tray water can remain there indifinetely and will be gond after a few days ? (not in the dormancy state)

Get yourself an atomiser or spray bottle, fill it with good, clean water and adjust the nozzle so that you have a spray pattern that is not too aggressive and spray the dust from the leaves. An atomiser that you can pump up will work better that a trigger operated one as you will have a constant supply of water to wash the dust off.
