Question
It's out okay that I'm growing my flytraps In pure spaghnum...w ith a layer of live spaghnum on the top layer. Is this ok?

Answer
Hello Jeff,

Yes, Venus Flytraps will grow fine in that for a while, however; you may want to use perlite or silica play sand to help with drainage and to add air space around the roots. Typical Venus Flytrap potting mix is a 50/50 mix of perlite or sand and spahgnum moss.
