Natures pace

My venus fly trap I also use rain water as they dont like the harsh tap water. I always top the water up by putting it in a saucer and letting it drink that way.
I did let it flower one year to see what it looked like, a bit insignificant to tell the truth and all it done was knock it back for a while.

Sorry you ve lost some seeds Tony through lack of light have nt you got vents on your propagator to release the condensation. My nan use to have a tap for rain water inside the house next to the cold tap, she always washed her hair with it.

thankyou treesandthings i usualey use base watering on my plants but the rainwater issue was one i was told recentley. Seeds look ok at moment but its earley days yet. Take care enjoy.

Thats a shame Tony......its a cold wet spring too, such a lot of damp and high humidity which doesn't bode well for new seedlings either. My pelargonium seedlings became really leggy in a few days, I've potted them on though and they are forming their new leaves. I have had to bring inside as many as I could as the cold and damp in the greenhouse was no good. Last year we used a paraffin heater, but it was expensive. Hope your Venus fly trap seeds come on okay, I have wrapped some of my pots round with bubble wrap, it helps a bit.
