Here's the deal. After my VFT came out of dormancy, I had set it outside (it had been in the garage). It was doing ok for a bit, but quickly turned terrible (don't ask, I think it got watered with tap water or something). I brought it inside and ended up putting it in a makeshift terrarium. It has been doing much better in the terrarium, it has a lot of new growth, and I am moving it outside.
I put it in a window planter that will house a few other VFTs (currently in the mail), but I'm worried about my plant accumulating.
I planted it in a 50/50 mixture of peat moss/perlite, and watered it pretty good. Then I took a gallon plastic bag and put it over the plant to increase humidity. The bag is pretty well sealed around the part of the planter with the plant in it, but its going to be a huge leap from terrarium conditions to my setup now.
Also, I've had it under an Intelligent Plant Light up until now, but its going to be getting a LOT more sun. Should I shade it to prevent it from burning? Remember its almost all new growth.
Could anyone provide me some tips on making this easier on the plant?
