FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Ha ha... not in Space Force, but rather a four letter agency that put men on the moon and a few rovers on the Red Planet

Wait really?

Yes sir.

NASA?? Oh wow. And you grow carnivorous plants? Best combo yet.

He's going to launch them into space with Elon Musk's car

Oh! Maybe someone on the ISS should bring up some of @Supercazzola, gemmae and grow them!

Get a capensis up there in orbit. Would probably thrive. Think of all that natural sunlight.

I bet all the dew would irritate the astronauts.

Oh also @Apollyon, you're at 1000 posts. Congrats!

In all seriousness, I had this “disagreement” with an owner of a store in TX who wants to bring CP in space. In the phase of space-based plant growth chamber technology maturation we are in, plants grown in space will primarily be ones that astronauts can eat. Sure there is enjoyment and pleasure in growing things for a hobby, but on long-duration space flights, getting edible plant based food is probably higher priority than growing a VFT.

I know this is getting way off topic, but give this a read if you’re interested. https://www.theguardian.com/science/20 ... aried-diet We can start a new thread for those who are interested in discussing it more.

How did we get from congratulating a donator to debating whether we should send a cp to space XD
