Venus Flytrap Sun Acclimation in Sweden: Brown Leaves Are Normal "Tanning"

Brown = Sun Adaptation, Not Damage

Moving a window-grown VFT to outdoor sun causes leaf browning—like a human tan. Some leaf burn on old growth is unavoidable. New growth will be fully sun-adapted.

Protocol

  • Continue full sun exposure.
  • Clip blackened old leaves.
  • Within 4 weeks: fully acclimated, all old growth gone.

Swedish spring temps (50°F night / 77°F day) are ideal—same as Oregon nursery. You're doing great.
