FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Hello all,
I received some TINY baby VFTs bare root as a bonus with a drosera I bought.I put them in sphagnum moss,keeping them In a windowsill for the first week(i plan to acclimate them to the outdoors next week).They have not been doing good so far,the growth is all dying and there is no new growth.Here are pics: The sphagnum doesn't hold them properly,they are so small.Should I replace the sphagnum with peat,that is what I imagine,as it would probably hold them more firmly.But I have no idea when it comes to this kinda stuff,as I have not dealt with baby vfts before.
Thanks and have a good one,
Max

recovery takes water,sunshine, and most of all time.

Those plants look fine, green=life.
Take a single small piece of sphagnum and roll it into a ball that will fit between the roots to keep them somewhat separated. Then wrap the roots in more sphagnum. This gives good contact between the roots and sphagnum, then plant the plug in more sphagnum.
Next, keep them moist, in good, indirect light outside, and leave them alone otherwise.
They're stressed from the shipping, and they will decline, but uprooting them again just added stress. Let Mother Nature do her thing so they can recover.
