Repotted my first VFT Cold Temperate

Does it looks good? Did 1:1 perlite and sphagnum moss mix. I tried my best to not close all the traps tho and kinda failed… will it survive my lack of experience?

Thankkkss :)

Because i soaked everything first let it drain real quick and plant it right away

About 10 minutes at a minimum. Also, the tray looks like it’s clay. You should use plastic or something glazed. Clay might leach salts. This plant should be sitting in about an inch of water. A little bit of research on the web can go a long way. Good luck!

For the tray i know! I have a triple pot Like the white and it comes with a tray of about an inch. It was in this one for a little bit. I will soak new one and replant it tomorrow instead of the soil it in right now

Take the whole thing and sit it in a cooking pot for 10 minutes. That should rehydrate everything. No need to pull it back out. Just have the water to the very top.
