Ok so im pretty sure i did a terrible job at repotting my carnivores, are there telltale signs that the plants are doing good or bad after repot?

The repot looks good, but you are going to have a challenge in that all of the plants except for the flytrap are tropical plants whereas the flytrap is going to need a dormancy that those other plants won't survive.

Oh i forgot to mention im in tropical country, you see the biggest vft in the pot? Those are 2+ years old in my care, the tiny ones are the new one. Also the neps are in separate tub from vft, i deliberately let less amount of water to be stored at the bottom.

Thanks you said it looked good calms me down :lol:

Yeah the repot looks good man, if the temps stay high enough for the Nep then I'm curious how it'll play out. I've been experimental with my growing this year and have VFTs and some neps side by side but nothing like this :lol:

To be fair, the large vft has been acclimated to full sun here, been through 2 dry and wet seasons :D . I just hope i didnt damage the roots too badly. I dropped it facedown while trying to get it out of previous pot :o

Though the live sphagnum shows dried tips im sure its from the sun yesterday but at least most of it stays wet. :mrgreen:
