Growing Venus Fly Trap Plant Time Lapse (161 Days)

Watch a carnivorous Venus flytrap growing and eating before your eyes in this time-lapse. A dormant flytrap was planted into a pot filled with soil mixture and moist wood fiber on the surface. We placed the pot into a terrarium to retain its humidity as long as possible.
It took around 3 weeks to see a new growth and another 30 days after that for the plant to develop into a fully trap-leave. The plant kept growing and had more leaves through time. After 4 months, we fed it with some flies and worms to see how Venus' fly trap eating and digesting. The more they eat, the larger the traps were developed.

The bug getting half his body disintegrated while he’s still alive was pretty rough to watch

[@SuperSuperman1976]

It's actually not good for the trap either, the trap needs to completely come to prevent bacteria from getting in. When he fed the first trap he should have manually removed anything that was left. In nature, rain and wind dose it, bit in a home setting it need to be done manually or it will develop bacteria and kill the trap and possibly the plant.

[@SuperSuperman1976]

The catch shouldn't be any bigger than 1/3 the size of the trap.

Baby flytraps are my favorite baby plant.with their little tiny traps. Right at 2:30 the teeth coming apart💚

[@scottjohnson7872]

Early spring is exiting to watch them emerge from dormancy. Always funny to me . When people think something is wrong , when the first petioles lay flat with no traps on them . Not realizing they produced for strictly photosynthesis.

When the fly trap got the flies it def said "finally, some good fucking food"

Question; 1- light time 2- humidity 3- substrate 4- how long it takes to sprouts

[@eLapseTime]

1- Lights was always on 2- We didn't track the humidity, just placed it in a terrarium and filled the bottom with some water 3- Mixed from perlite and peat moss, ratio 1:1 4- As you can see in the video, it's around 3 weeks

I recently bought 1 and planted 3 kinds of carnivorous plants 1 of them being the venus plant and I was wondering if the white stuff popping up is sign of them starting to grow or not

[@scottjohnson7872]

I use these types of videos to fallow the growing rate to my own plants . From their first non trap petioles, used strictly for photosynthesis in the spring , to longer summer petioles and good trap sizes and rapid turnout . To shorter fall petioles and the largest most rewarding trap sizes .

You probably have a different species of flytrap from the one in the video. Based on your description you most likely have a “Spider” variant

How do you get around the changes of light if you don't mind me asking? How many hours between each photos. I understand timelapse but don't understand how you don't have variance in light since I know these need good amount of light?

[@eLapseTime]

The light was setup in a studio, so it'd stay the same all the time. The timer is set differently depending on types of plants, growing stages, etc... Typically around 40 mins to few hours.

My venus flytrap once tried to ear itself. It didn't work out

[@David-Cope]

Great video.. Did you manage to get a stalk on it with more seeds? I did before and when on holiday, my aunt watered it - with tap water. I came back to a black plant like the dead ones seen around the main plant in video. Going to try again but collecting rain water first before I order one. They are quite partial to small amounts of cheese and a bit of ham. NOT too much - about the size of a small fly. Smaller than those in video. It's how I got the stalk growing which you don't normally see in videos.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmiYaZSZia6hfqs
