Here are my flytraps repotted after another 3 months dormancy in my wife's fridge. It was a rough one . Somebody in our house turned down the temperature in the refrigerator and when I opened the containers there was some ice and frost.

But everything looks OK ... and now my wife can have her refrigerator back ... lol.

1 large pot B52's
1 small pot B52's
1 pot baby B52's
1 mixed pot G16's and Maroon monsters.
1 pot of Flytraps that I bought at the local market.

The plants look great. I have often thought that one of these years, I'd pick up a small fridge (like a beverage fridge) to have all to myself so I can do whatever stratification or dormancy things that I want for the plants that I have without mixing it in with regular fridge food items! Hehe

Which plant light are you using?

I also had to shove my venus flytrap in the fridge to force it to go dormant. It was probably dormant already, but I thought all the leaves had to be dead. I'm pretty much a noob with venus flytraps

They look fine! I've been using the fridge method for over 12 years and it works great. Started waking mine up a month ago. About 25 pots.

It's been about a month now and there's not a lot of new growth. But I've got flower stalks popping up all over the place.

I guess that's a good sign. I clip the flower stalks off as soon as I spot them.
