Hello! My name is Vi and I'm new here. My venus fly trap was something I found at Lowe's and it looked so sad. I do have an indoor garden with succulents, cacti, orchids, bamboo, etc. But this is my first carnivorous plant. I can't have it outdoors so I know keeping it indoors will make this even harder. I want to know if there's anything I really should know about that websites don't tell you. I already plan on giving it dried crickets that I'll rehydrate. I already plan on placing it on a window sill and might move it after I invest in a light to help it grow better. I want to repott it in new soil using orchid moss and I'm trying to find a soil without a mineral or chemical content. And I'm using distilled water.
I would like any tips regarding dormancy, watering, common health issues.
And finally my plant is a little droopy. The stems are thin and stuff. Here is a picture. Is this concerning I'm not sure if it's lighting, watering, or whatnot. HELP!!! SOS.
