Hey, I'll start off with the 2 year old plant. It's a big flytrap, about 5 inches tall. I haven't transplanted it once since I got it, and it's done really well. I filled a jug with rainwater from the fall and used it all winter, but I'm wondering if I should have just used distilled over the winter because the water could have lost some of the nutrients. My traps are pretty much all red right now, and the roots are starting to grow out the holes in the bottom of the pot. Do you guys suggest transplanting it?
Once transplanted, what is a good way to water it? They say to let the water soak up from the bottom and that's what I've always done in the original pot, but I'm going to put it in a terrarium, so would I put a straw in the soil to the bottom or trickle the water down the side?
We just got 2 new ones and transplanted them, and have the same watering question about watering in the terrarium.
Thanks guys.
