Who Won Our Seed Giveaway?! - Fertilizing Carnivorous Plants

hey guys welcome back to the channel in today's video we are going to find out who our seed giveaway winners are so stick around so if you're new to this channel about a week ago we did a seed giveaway for reaching 1000 subscribers and firstly I just want to say thank you to everyone who is obviously subscribe to channel who follow us all about videos and enjoy our content and also big thing you to everyone here actually entered into the seed giveaway so right over here as you know from yesterday's video we have two packs of drosera capensis of red variety and obviously these are going out to two winners which we will find out in this video not before we draw the winners i just want to tell you guys a couple things we had our participants drawn from instagram and from youtube because obviously some people don't have Instagram and what I have done is that I have met made a list and I have given every single person a number so what we will do is then we will use a random number generator between the numbers one and 27 because we had 27 participants and then that's how we will find our two winners and the second thing that I want to show you guys is that I may start recording less videos on this channel because I'm actually going to a job interview today because obviously the economy has been in a down since the you know the world's issues started and obviously the funniest lines picked back up now and I actually need to find work because that's why I'm in Australia I moved here to Australia to obviously work and earn an income and you know start up a laugh and laugh which you could never get in South Africa so yeah I may just go back to being one beer a week and I already hope that you guys and do enjoy others videos I may do a little bit more just letting you guys know that maybe less videos on the channel and that's the reason why anyway let's not look at our seed winners okay guys so this is our list of all the participants as you can see everyone has a number between one and twenty seven and we will now use Google's random number generator so the first one number 26 and number 19 so let me find out who it is real quick okay guys so I will be contacting the winners now and the winners are ants knowledge and Michael Barnett so well done guys do you guys have won our seed giveaway I hope that you guys enjoy the C's that you will get and obviously our concept you guys so that is it for the seat giveaway once again thank you to everyone who participated so now let's continue with our update and our season be having first class and outside so here we go guys because of Joseph looms and as I say we need to spray them down every single day let's just do that [Music] pervy guy if you guys watched Sunday's video you would know that our other reach I over here on the side he was not looking too good and we did first class him just to you know see if anything the company roots but of course he has now gone ahead and killed himself so yeah nothing's from that guy but this Reacher here on the left has its new leaf art and it looks really really good so you will just give it a couple droplets of fertilizer as you can see the point is actually visible now whereas you know before it was very very small so yeah let's give it a couple drops of fertilizer so I can get nice and big and there we go super super easy when they get mad some big and hopefully eventually you'll be able to get these guys so big that we don't even have to give them a liquid fertilizers anymore that they'll actually just be catching their own insects right over here we have our truster Adelaide the same time that I've gone through all of those difficult trials in the past and obviously now we can actually see it it's actually big now it's visible so it's looking really really good let me look at it another fish bag it eats his fish flakes very very well and obviously that new leaf there's very very Julie as you can see in the camera so let me just give it a little another fish bag and here we go let's give it a fish bag just cut and now I'm making the fish cakes you know not so big like before because before we would get so much fish flakes that'd be you know the fish necks were as big as the leaves and then you can kind of see in the old traps that they kind of a little bit moldy and yeah so now that the traps little bit bigger we can give them you know smaller size meals and it can properly wrap around it and you wouldn't have that mold issue anymore but anyway seen as I did just feel this plant let me just you know stimulate the leaf little bit so we can see some movement on a 10 minute time lapse [Music] [Music] [Music] and there we go does as you can tell I think there was a little bit of movement on the plans but obviously I can't so because I'm watching in real life and obviously the time lapse is what I need to see if the pawn moves a lot so not so yeah for me obviously must be win but maybe there is a little bit of movement because I think that does trigger traps little hair things at the back I think they moves a little bit okay guys so before we update the roster rotundifolia which there's actually quite a couple things that I found quite interesting about the growth have the dragon arm I am going to my job interview now and the reason why I put it in inverted commas is something because it's a farm I'm going to a chicken farm and I'll just be working as like a farmhand there not many people know this but in a quite a few countries you know I think Canada and the UK also has an obviously Australia there is this visa it's called like a working holiday visa so you can go to the country and you can go on holiday for a year and if you work for three months in a specific sector so the sector that I'll be working in is obviously you know culture agriculture and foods but like I'm a mom yeah you guys understand I'm saying anyway if I work for three months in that sector then it means that I can get a second year's visa and then it'll work six months on that user now I can get a third year's visa and then hopefully by then I have saved up enough money to study in Australia and once I studied in Australia and you know gotten more points then I can hopefully get a work visa and then after working for a year in Australia in you know fields which is in a field that is cognized in Australia such as I am an environmental and plant and animal scientist and a human physiologist so all of those can't but I need to work in Australia to actually get them to cons and in order to get them myself to able to be able to work in the country obviously have to study so I can get you know letters stating that I am registered and very very difficult stuff anyway so they not get a year and then I can get a visa that allows me to work for a year and then after works for a year then hopefully I can get a visa which allows me to get permanent residency and then from permanent residency after four years then citizenship so it's a very long and difficult process but this is the first step in that process so I'm gonna go now to the interview I'll let you guys know what happens obviously when I get back and then I'll update you guys on the cross for every time you fill er okay guys I just got back from the chicken farm it all went really really well obviously as I said it wasn't really an interview as much as it was just handing in some paperwork and looking around the place and just talking because obviously it isn't journey you know a farmhand helping out on the farm is not really something that you really need to do an interview for so yeah that's done now when super super well so hopefully come Monday time I should start working there so anyway let's go back to looking at our plans last time well a couple of hours ago which is like a couple of seconds for you I was talking about a triceraton Athaliah and there are some quite interesting different differences that I had found in the plant's growth since we have started feeding them so let's go take a look ok and here is our draws for a real timely failure the Gaza we have been feeding fish legs and this liquid fertilizers that you can see in the background anyway this plant here on the left banana is the one that we have been feeding in the net of fertilizers and this one over here is going to be a been feeding the fish tanks so what you may be able to notice already is that the one on the left has obviously open traps one of them whereas this one over here has cursed traps now the reason for this is obviously because we feeding this guy B in liquid fertilizers so the traps don't really have to close around it because you know the chap easily absorbs it right into the leaf itself whereas over here the trap does actually have to toast around the fish bag so that can actually get all the glands on to be food now the other thing that you may or may not notice is that this guy here obviously has a very very thick petiole right there that little stem going to go to trap whereas this guy here has a very very thin petioles as you can tell and the second thing is that this guy is actually growing up at the ground mountain you see this newest rapid growing up whereas this one all the traps are still pretty low down to the ground no I've no idea why this is actually happening I think this guy may just be trying to reach for something it doesn't make any sense to me because I've never seen trust or a real tiny failure ever grow up rats like that I generally see pictures of them going in a pretty low down to the ground at this and secondly I have no clue why this one has such a thick petiole compared to this guy so yeah that's a very very strange and obviously you can see all the other traps are still nice and small that it's exactly the same as they always have this guy down here he's been eating a lot a little fuzzy insects that land in there so yeah as I said it's very very strange and I have no idea why the growth rates is so different but anyway between the two so far this guy I predicted is growing much much quicker and much much faster as you can see there's a brand new trap right there and one at the back of anything whereas this one has only made this one new trap since we lost ferrets and this one in the middle is obviously still developing but right at the beginning of stages of development so this garage has already opened up that leaf so as we predicted this guy's growing much much quicker and this one's growing slower but they're both still much bigger than all the other parts in the pot so you guys can taking up whatever you want Squire interesting to see this you know these results I honestly didn't expect it to you know create different growth habits in the plants you know I didn't expect to make the plant that grows up at the ground and one that has super thick petioles but anyway that's what we might have so what we're gonna do is that we're just going to feed it fish late and then this one over here on the Left we're gonna feed it some liquid fertilizers not gonna do it every single week and then we're gonna put in the time I leave the house okay so now we're going to put on our fish flake and this guy over here obviously only brand new leaf that has just developed so he's gonna get something to eat now and we will put just one droplet on there's an open trap because we don't act it and feed all the trash because and obviously isn't in front of much much bigger and I fixed our little needle guys so it obviously works again now hopefully doesn't get jammed up again so let's just put some droplets on this trap right at the back super super easy there we go and now I've put on a 30-second time outs for you guys [Music] and there we go thus adding halfway through the little liquid first possibly had on this on this part over here I think it followed off so I just reapplied it over there now this side obviously you can see little fish baked it's getting very very wet so I already think that these guys obviously starts to secrete some what is it some enzymes right at the beginning stages of actually eating this fish bake because this fish cake has obviously become quite whipped so there you go guys a super simple video just updating you guys on how our plants are looking so far I can tell they're growing pretty well now these times get some Goods growth and they're growing pretty pretty quick obviously all about other plants outside are also starting to grow quite quickly Iraq now and I think it's because they've obviously got into that size where they're getting a lot of Sun are that enough nutrients from their roots that they can really start growing super super well so if you guys do want to see them and bear updates make sure that you subscribe to the channel and if you enjoyed those updates please are able to leave a lack obviously as you can tell outside it is got dog now because I went out to the UM to the chicken farm I'm fat legs and then obviously it's quite a long drive there and back so yeah that is obviously while spartak aside so I'm gonna put these guys outside and I'll see you guys in tomorrow's episode [Music] [Music] [Applause] you
