Nice video Brad. I have been growing VFTs for about 30 years, and live in South Carolina (one of the 2 states where they grow wild, although they grow on the coast, not where I live in the upstate). I believe that water quality is the most important aspect of growing VFTs. If you have water with lots of minerals in it, you should use rain water or distilled water. When I quit using tap water, my plants grew much better, and so I NEVER use tap water for my VFTs or Sarracenia either. I think it has a long-term effect on the plants, because as water evaporates, it leaves behind the minerals. Over time, the concentration of minerals increases, until it becomes toxic to the plants. Obviously re-potting will help reduce toxins. I also grow mine outside year-round, and have a large diameter pot (about 24 inches) where I have a colony of VFTs. They look great growing together like that. I separate them and fill in empty areas of the pot sometimes so it looks like a mass of hungry little mouths! My 2 cents worth.

Thank YOU for showing exactly where on the plant it should be above the media! That's a huge help for me!

[bubblegreen]

you make it look so easy. my repotting is a hot mess

[babuzzard]

Thanks for the advice, I’m in Brisbane Australia and this is the first time after many attempts over many years I’ve been successful in repotting and multiplying my VFT’s, had them over a year now and they are getting really large, couldn’t be happier, have grown all other carnivorous plants very successfully but VFT’s have always eluded me until now. Thanks again.👍👍

Cool, they look comfy and happy after repot....Thanks Brad for sharing.

[Tommyr]

I've started waking up and re-potting some of mine. I love when it's time to wake them up!

[diyhobbyistcoupleph]

after repotting how many days will they become stable? or if there is a problem what signs should I watch out for? thanks in advance.

Thanks Brad. My youngest son keeps carnivorous plants and he will appreciate your advice.

I wish my hose would spray carnivorous plant approved water. Guess ill head to the grocery store now for some distilled

[craigkirby]

How did the little ones come about? From seed, or do they send out runners or something?

Thankyou so much for your time and dedication put on these videos!

I grew one for three years and it was alive when I moved and left behind. If it rained occasionally I would put it outside if it was warm enough and the rest of time it was indoors. It never went dormant and kept getting bigger.

Thanks Brad. I purchased mine end of December from Home Depot. I followed your advice and placed it outside under a layer of burlap to protect it from our high winds. It is still producing traps so I don't know if I bought it too late for it to go dormant. We shall see! Thanks for all of the great information.

[joshuahollis]

[bobkelley]

Man! I just bought one at Aldi store last week in Oct of 2018. So if I was paying attention and understood you right.So I put it in the back of our the refrigerator. Hopefully it will be alive when I take it out Feb 1st 2019. Thank you.
