NEED HELP WITH SUNDEW!
my spoon leaf sundew is not doing good is there anything can do for it.
This plant was going to make a flower but I broke the flower so I cut it off a couple of days after I broke it. Then it fell not once but twice (I seem to be taking everything out on this poor plant) anyway the sundew lost some roots and is no longer making any dew it is also turning brown. Please if there is anything you think I can do to save this plant let me know. |
well - hope you are watering with distilled water and keeping its pot in about 1/2 in of distilled water ( in a saucer )......consistently.
Also they need a fair amount of sun, so south-facing window is ideal. Do not give fertiliser, but feed with dried bloodworms if it can't catch enough of its own food. |

When mine stopped producing dew, I moved it closer to my T5 lights and now it looks much better. Try more light.

Probably just stressed from the drops. D. spatulata is a tough plant though so give lots of light and keep it wet and it should recover fine.

More light usually helps. If it doesn't make it I have plenty of them.

ITS ALIVE! today I looked at my sundew and it had a little green leaf on top of all the brown ones and the leaf had a little dew on it. So its still alive :biggrin:
