Growing Carnivorous Plants E5: Venus Fly Trap Terrarium

I'M BACK MOTHER PLANTERS!
This episode of GCP will be entirely about Venus Fly Trap care, and features an in-depth guide on how to construct a Venus Fly Trap terrarium THE RIGHT WAY.

To make a water reservoir without the 3D printed wicking barrier, check out the very first episode of GCP below. It should work just fine.

This is most likely going to be the last video in the Growing Carnivorous Plants playlist. Don't be disappointed though! I have SO MUCH in store for you guys! Some of the things I plan to show are mentioned at the end of the episode, THINGS ARE GONNA GET WEIRD!

Hypnotic Exotics is the go-to channel for carnivorous plant care information, tutorials, and updates regarding my botanical endeavors. You can watch the carnivorous plants eating, growing, propagating, and breeding all in one place!

I've done my best to keep the information accurate, but please let me know of any discrepancies!

I found your account a little less than a month ago, and I was sad you took a break because of the Hugh quality videos. I’m so happy your back!

Wish you had made more about plant, really enjoy the video 👍🏻 You had a great voice as well, keep it up 😆 Looking forward for more of your video

Nice, I love that you inform yourself about the natural habitat first, before making such a terrarium. I have seen many attempts of keeping vft in big closed containers, because "it looks nice" totally ignoring the light and dormancy the plants need. So seeing the title, I was sceptical to say the least, but the way you did it should be fine :)
I would love to see an update on your burmanii terrarium, if it still exists.
And if you put some affiliate links in the descrption, so anyone can see what lights, terrariums, setups, etc. your´re using, that would be pretty convenient (as well as give you some easy extra compensation for your time)
Looking forward to your next videos.

I made a closed sundew terrarium and its thriving in it, and to control the mould I put inside some springtails.

I love the effort put into the video. Very engaging and very informative, can't wait for more content! Love this man, no homo lol.

I feel like since the soil went almost all the way to the top, and the top is open, that this is kind of just like a planting pot at this point.

But it looks prettier than a planting pot.

Also you said don't water from above and then after planting the VFT, you watered from above. The reason to do it is the right reason but it's just funny that you mentioned a big point of not watering from above.

Holy dang! Im so excited for what you have coming up! Random fun experiments sounds awesome! Mutating seeds at home is the one I am most looking forward to!

[liminal.animal]

Wow! Thanks for the super entertaining and educational content! Wicking stands sound like such a game changer!

[plantguy]

How about a carnivorous plant vivarium! Using similar methods with much the same materials that amphibian and reptile hobbyists use and make it a slice of whatever environment they came from. Maybe an exo-terra terrarium? Maybe take some time but might be fun.

I watched your humpty foo terrarium video and I think we all want to see how it’s doing now!! Please consider making a video on it again! The idea of having a water reservoir is great!
