Feeding Indoor Carnivorous Plants: Bugs Are Fertilizer, Not Fuel

Perspective

Sunlight and water are primary; insects are just fertilizer. Plants catch plenty on their own.

If You Feed

• Use small insects that fit leaves/pitchers.
• Large prey rots and causes problems.

Fertilizer Alternative

Use correctly diluted fertilizers to avoid root burn. Details in "Grow Carnivorous Plants" DVD series.

Good growing!
