(sorry about bad quality and size)
They're not that healthy, because they ate a wasp that was hit with some poison, so half of them died. but they are comming back.i have a few noobie questions if you don't mind
lately it hasn't been raining at all.Infact, my water tray is starting to drain and little mosquito worms are forming. What exactly is "Distilled" water?water from the sink?I have a near by canal and i was wondering if it is ok to get water from there for my plant.
also, i live South florida, and i'm not sure if it's too humid.I want to plant my pot outside and not cooped up in this container and pot.Do you think its safe?What should i do to find out?I was wondering what kind of soil should i use?I'm only 15 so i dont know what this "sphagnum moss" is.I've even tried to google it but i'm not the greatest with this kind of information.Is there any other kind of sand or soil i could use?I know it shouldn't have nutrients but what kind?soil from normal grass with no fertalizer?
