This is my first attemp at venus flytrap seeds. I got the seeds from california carnivores. I split the seeds in equal amounts and did a pot 50/50 peat/sand and a pot of Long Fiber Sphagnum Moss. I put them in my green house and made a shade spot for them. They took about 6 weeks to sprout. So happy, a little milestone in my life. Ill do updates as they grow. I plan on starting more in the near future. Thanks for this great site.

Congratulations on your success in germinating FlyTrap seeds.
B-52 is a cultivar.
It can only be propagated by cloning, involving leaf cuttings, flower stalk cuttings, meristem tissue culture, or division.
Any seeds produced by B-52 VFTs, should be labeled as B-52 x Self or B-52 x B-52.
This will prevent misidentification down the road.
Good growing,
Mike
