  1. Bog report. Seedlings were all a little damaged by the moss, but the weakest seedling, a round leaf sundew, is still managing to open and the largest flytrap now has enough energy to raise its leaves from the moss, and a tiny trap is opening (might catch a springtail). No signs of color on the pitchers (except the one that came with color), but the largest with the damaged leaves only lost one leaf fully, can photosynthesize, and some unidentified things are up.

  2. Second part of the Venus Flytrap seedling transfer preparation, the bog looks good. I haven't water germated like this before but I think the seedlings are ok, at least they are still alive. I am using #guvcview for the magnifier capture and soldering clamps to keep it in place while #livebogging :)

  3. The Round-leaved Sundews, Drosera rotundifolia, are preparing for winter. The trap leaves die back and the plant forms hibernacula, tightly packed buds of primordial leaves. The plant survives the winter in this form and new growth begins in the spring.

  8. The first seedlings from the 2026 Venus Flytrap harvest are ready to plant. I water germinated them this time and it seems to have worked. I think I will put them in the bog. The last stalk with seed pods is still attached and should be ready to pull in a few days.
