QuestionHi how do i grow venus flytrap from seed.
AnswerHello Ian,
Growing Venus Flytraps from seed is quite simple. You fill a pot with 1:1 ratio of unfertilized sphagnum peat moss and perlite, keep it moist at all times, drop the seeds on the soil surface with only the slightest of granulated moss covering them barely, keep them under bright 40 watt florescent shop lights or in a very bright, sunny, south facing window and in 70-80 degree temperatures, and wait a couple of weeks. If your ambient humidity is around 50% you will not need a humidity dome. You should see tiny seedling Flytraps after two to six weeks, sometimes longer. It will take them 2-5 years to grow to maturity from seed.
