Hello! To start off, I’m very new to VFT ownership, so my questions may be very elementary! Ultimately I’m learning and am looking for any feedback and advice!
I have six VFTs and this guy I just got about a week ago. The traps generally look ok, but the leaves have lots of darkening around the edges. Some were slightly dark upon arrival, but I do think it’s gotten a bit worse in the sun. It almost looks burnt, but again, complete novice here.
Relevant Info:
- Pennsylvania, outdoors in full sun (south facing). Tried to slowly adapt it to full sunlight, but maybe went too quickly? Temps here have fluctuated a lot in the past week from 40s-70s with most days in the 50s-60s.
- Potted in spagnum moss.
- Currently using the dish method for watering, but open to better suggestions. Distilled water/rain water only.
