    Hi everyone, I'm giving venus flytrap seeds a go, from what I've read the likelihood of success is slim so this may be a little premature. I have two pots of seed in the fridge and they will be there for 4 - 6 weeks. I've read you have to keep an eye out for mould or fungal infection and to use a fungicide as soon as it's spotted. Can anyone recommend a fungicidal spray for carnivorous plants? I can't find too much on the internet other than it shouldn't contain copper, most of the messages I've read online are years old and most of the sprays are banned or only available in the US. Any help appreciated.

    I cant imagine something that grows in a bog needing a fungicidal spray in order to grow.:biggrin:
    People like to make things sound difficult, but that's just my thinking.

    Not grown Venus flytrap from seed but I have grown Sarracenias, they are painfully slow for the first two years, I would imagine Venus flytrap is similar in growth rate as in the early stages they are not catching flies.
