How to fertilize Marciano Butterwort
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Marciano Butterwort after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

My Pinguicula Johanna has caught what I believe is a mosquito 🦟 and has also had lots of growth #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #Pinguicula #cpclubthursday #GrowLights #Greenhouse #Butterwort #ping

Propagating progress I got a teeny tiny sprout on the leaf from water propagation.

My ping seems happy but is no longer pink like when I got it. Why are the leaves curling? #PinguiculaMoranensis

My butterwort was going to bloom but the stem of the bud has turned yellow and stopped growing i think it's because of the cold #cpclubthursday #seymour #cpclub #Butterwort #pinguiculaweser #carnivorousplants

I wonder if I should be worried. Since the last post, Doily has produced two more flowers, which is all good. However, producing flowers requires a lot of energy from plants, especially tropical ones, and as you can see, it's also causing her to become more deformed compared to her sisters. The colder months mean that there is a lack of sunlight and bugs, so I don't know where she is getting the energy to bloom, which makes me conclude that she is expending energy she doesn't have, which could cause her to decline gradually. So, I was wondering (as much as I hate to) if I should cut her flower off to force her to save energy until Spring or just let her be. #cpclubthursday #CarnivorousPlants #CarnivorousClub #Pinguicula #Butterwort
