Carnivorous Plants for Kids

so I did it again guys I bought another Venus flytrap as you can see over here this is the old ones the new one and when I was buying the Venus flytrap I saw a thing to myself hey one of the best views power transfer kids because these are always the ponds that fascinate kids and also upon that if you can really help parents teach the kids some form of responsibility so in this video we're gonna talk a little bit about the best kind of response for kids and a little bit on how to adopt them just it around welcome back to the challenge today guys and sorry for snowman echoey the doors are all closed because the neighbors are all mowing the lawns as you heard in the previous clip so I actually try keep it like this little bit quieter than if everything was open up so it is your first time to the channel this channel is dedicated to be care and cotton of past and we uploaded a video every single week we've been growing their response for about 11 years now and I just want to share this with everyone else in the world so let's jump straight into it there are many reasons why you may want to get your kid a cleaner spot you may want to teach them some responsibility or discipline it might be an activity that allows you and which multiplied together automatically because your child really enjoys growing the plants there's many different reasons and these are just some of them you will be able to get them to learn how to look after a pond might be a way to be on to them getting a pet because you have to learn how to water it look after it feed it give it a rapid fire less receptive look at the pet in terms of bonding with the kid it may be something that you asked to do together to allow yourself to see a progression in growth of a living organism that's all isn't being a plant which allows you guys to bond as you guys are both creating something together just or something special if you have a kid and if your kid is obviously interested in it then obviously you care is interested in that when I get it because it's fascinating they eat bugs and there's not many plants around the world that do that besides obviously the Pronovias parts so there are three different reasons why that I've talked about at least you may want to get your child a cannabis plant so now that we've covered that - may be wondering what are the best could never surprise to get well you may or may not notice but there are actually a lot of different genesis of cannabis plants so basically other things have some clear response you get Nepenthes venus flytraps to trust her up including alder van lebra Tiana heliamphora darlingtonia neutral area these are just the ones that I can think of off the top of my head there are a lot of different types of response but many of them also have very specific care needs that you have to follow in order for them to grow well but I will just give you guys three of the easiest and most well known ones that you can actually get for your child which will help you and a child grow together where you may be helping them and dealing with them or you just supervising or just something that you know will be able to grow well in your environment so these Fuji missiles under penalty's venus fly traps and Rasta now the care for these plants can always been difficult depending on which one you get as I say Mac for example the cross it's just genus rats so you get the photographer get a three species but we will be focusing on the easiest ones to grow so in terms of the pen please still be Nepenthes venkata or venture cursor or just a normal cross that you can get from your local Home Depot these are some super easy to the laughter and because they are a cross of two different species it makes it much easier to look after them in terms of rostra the three that I'll be recommending to you is transfer capensis trust respect later and drosera bonanza the reason why are saying these ones because bonanza has a different type of care to the transfer capensis and raster especially looks a little different to these two so there's a little bit of a variety here but they're actually quite a few so that are super easy to care and most of them you can use as a first-time cannabis plant with your child and venus flytraps you get different types of Venus products but the care for them is basically always the same there's not many penis backups or if that or any at all that you Chi very specialized knowledge map you wondering okay well yes these are the tops of the response that I should look at but which one you do excuse well this depends on your environment do you have a garden do you have a garden but you have a very sunny window do you have a sunroom do you live in the tropical belt of the world or do you live in temperate climates or do you live in super cold comes back northern northern Europe or Canada for example but tropical zones might include Singapore the islands in the south of Borneo Malaysia they're lower parts of India back Rock down in in passive Bristol and even Florida is quacks tropical temperate zones includes basically Australia possibly Zealand some parts of lower Africa where I used of South Africa most of America temperate Europe and then obviously the cold class which I mentioned earlier so these comes or depicts which tap off corresponds we should get so Nepenthes are tropical plants venus flytraps are temporary plants and the trustor that I have spoken about are initially sub tropical and temperate so if you're living in the comments where it's quite warm and it's quite human there's decent amount of Sun not just a cat the topicals and a pet this is for you because they need pretty good humility good much much stronger red light but shaded dappled labs are constantly is best for an appendage to grow evolve and if you're living in a tropical Cameron Tucker's they're obviously going to be the best ones you just put them straight outside and they're going to grow perfectly fine and you just need to water them that's about it when you grow a little eNOS flytrap the temperate zones are going to be the best an area that you have lots of sunlight outside but you can put them in the Sun for about eight hours of direct sunlight each day will be best for a Venus flytrap because they thrive and a lot of sunlight if you don't have a garden for a Venus flytrap but you do have some sunny windows getting something like a draw strike appearances or just respect you later would be much easier because they are much partier growers they will be able to grow on you window but they might not look as good as if you could grow them outside in the garden but because they are such from rose this is not very necessary trust refer NASA is a drawstring that needs to be in a temperate environment - when I say example environment I mean that it goes to sleep in winter so a Venus flytrap will also go to sleep in winter so you go across from the NASA and a Venus flytrap if you're living in the comics like it's super cold in winter those are the ones for you because you can just leave them outside and he'll go to sleep just fine if you livin in maybe a warmer area if you were staying in for example Florida baby then Asura such as transfer capensis especially will be perfectly thank you and even apprentice so there is this range that you can look as well growing environments and the paths that you can choose more humid as the Nepenthes or more human and warm is the Fenty's going into drugs drug capensis just a spatula ah then if you're on a more temperate region truster of bonanza and the Venus batcher and that's really a good guide that you can use for your kids so let me make it a little bit more ease of you super humid super tropical environments Nepenthes subtropical sort of with a lot of space and lots of lads then you can grow a dress recompense and special data do you have a lot of life that you're in the temple area then look at rush of Bonanza or a Venus flytrap less might look at the traffic offenses traffic squash matter more large transfer bonanza Venus batcher just normal house flat as well Nepenthes these will be some easy ways we need to decide which one you want so now that I have confused you about the different types of in response and the current environments let's look at the care for each type of cannabis plant so this might help you understand a little bit more which Padilla's plants would be best for you and work child in your environment that you can provide alternate response fire clean water and what do I mean by that I mean rain water distilled water reverse osmosis water there are very few cases where you can actually use your tap water to very a planter so for the Venus flytrap and the dresser you want to have a bowl and the points on the converse plants in this bowl and you just fill up the bowl of some water and that's all you're gonna do is regard to them once the water on the ball has finished you literally just pull it back up with this clean water again for the Nepenthes what you want to do is that watered every one to three days depending on the media he wants the soil to be moist not wet so what do I mean by moist he poor was it and you see the water drainage believe it if the water if the top layer of the plaques is dry the next day watered again if there's not dry the next day he just waits and waits and waits until the top layer is a little bit wet and you can just water from the top again now let's start with the depend these the Nepenthes require good humidity warm warm temperatures to start with normal temperatures and dappled lat that means you can grow the plants on a south-facing window or an east-facing window so they can get some good mat and they will be able to grow just fine inside your house you can look at dependencies around the house this is a good website that it will allow you to determine ways to grow your Nepenthes inside of your house now we will look at trust trust our do fire and lots of light but the structure doctor and pensive star spoken about can be grown indoors if you have a south facing a prison warden who still or a north place in between the southern hemisphere window this means that these windows will get a lot of glass and squash NASA and capensis can grow just permanently fine in these Minnesota as I said just set them in your ball put them by the window that's basically all you need worry about when there's when they start flowering I would recommend you cut the flower off because they're not getting that a lot so they make use all their energy when they are growing their flower scopes and they're living insults if you have a garden and you have lots of sunlight then definitely get special answer or capensis just put them out in the bottom full satellite and just watch them not normal once the water level has gotten low literally fill it back up with water that's what we need to worry about if you're gonna be in a little bit of a colder climate and you do have a garden then it'll be best for you to get the Venus flytrap or the Kanata they're both basically learning the exact same topic even though the from different Possible's by environments I mean they both go to sleep and winter when it gets super cold in winter they're gonna see if they go dormant in a little planet underground and when it comes to springtime they grow again out of this bag so therefore if you do have the garden just get a Venus flytrap or drops from Bonanza put them there and as I said water it just like you would with any other other response when the water level has dropped put it back up when winter comes around and they start getting steep wash them a little bit less once the water tray has lost any all the water inside of it leave about a 1 to 2 days in between the watering just fill it back up and that's what we have to worry about I hope that this has given you a little bit of a guide into which funds that you can get for your child it is a little bit more of a complex video because we have to cover different growth care for different plants but I will also be providing specific acres for each specific species of kind of response that I spoke about today so if you want to make sure to subscribe because then you'll be able to see these videos once I make
