I had 2 tiny VFT's i got from a garden centre, neither of them looked healthy as such and both of them f-in died after flowering. I've also tried sundews and the trumpet types from seed, one of the sundews germed but died after a couple of weeks, the others didn't even germ. They're quite difficult to keep happy in my experience, i read that goldfish food flakes can be used to feed them
Sundews and pitcher plants need very high RH. They're not as easy as VTF, but carnivorous plants need a dormancy, of which durring they do look like they're dead or dying.
The thing with the seeds not germinating, the seeds have a lifespan or expirations. Seeds that fall from the flowers will germinate in 1-2 days, but seeds that have been sitting inside a kit on the store shelf could be months old and usually never germinate. Also they can not be buried in the substrate. They must lay on the surface, in the light 18hrs, 100%RH and 82F.
In the past I've feed my pitchers osmocot pellets. Just 1 per pitcher and every month I wash and rinse out each pitcher.
Freeze dried blood worms work great too. But they need to be rehydrated first.
Fish flakes should work but have to be hydrated too. Sort make a little ball and spear it with a toothpick, and feed.
Not one single gnat in sight
Clones are doing good and all obviously rooted.
Strawberry cough is slow but healthy otherwise.
