The best carnivorous plant food outside of bugs
This stuff is amazing. They’re like little gelatin cube made out of the same stuff the plants eat when consuming bugs. I use mine on a drosera Capillaris by cutting a cube piece off that’s just smaller than the size of a leaf. The plant consumes it within 24-48 hours with usually nothing left behind. Within a few days the plant is bursting with new growth and looks even healthier. Cannot recommend enough

Easy to use
Great product very easy to use. It comes with little plastic tweezers so that you can place the cube in the plant‘s mouth.

Seems to be working
This has been working for my venus fly traps and pitcher pot plants. Once the fly trap closes on it you have to rub the trap with gentle pressure to simulate a bug struggling, otherwise the trap will open back up.(look up a youtube video) My plant fully digested a few of these. Lately though it has not been fully digesting them. I think it may because they are in dormancy(its winter time and cold) but im not certain. My plants are indoor under a grow light. The food completely disappeared while in my pitcher pots too.

Effective and gentle—no black traps!
This is my second time using these jelly cubes for my Venus Flytrap, and I’m very pleased with the results. The cubes are small and delicate, making them easy to place in the traps. My plant has had no issues "digesting" them; unlike some other foods I was worried about, none of the traps have turned black or died after eating. It takes a few days for the traps to process the food, and then they open right back up looking healthy. I will definitely continue to buy this for my plant!

I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
I bought this and fed all my plants right away. The next day when I went to check on them, the gel had burned my butterworts leaves on the exact spot the gel was placed. This really upset me! My butterworts were all in perfect condition with beautiful leaves. Now they all have some white or brown spot on them. And when I went to check on my V. Fly Traps the gel was still there, which I was told was normal. So when I removed the gel from the mouths, I saw that they were burned too! And the ones that had gel didn’t seem to fully open up, the teeth were still locked. See for yourself in the pics. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

Okay for flytraps, AVOID for pitcher plants!
Works pretty well for feeding my flytrap - they are able to digest the food in about a day. They do leave an unsightly residue behind. However I would recommend NOT using this for pitchers plants such as nepenthes. I fed two large pitchers and the food ended up getting moldy and the pitchers are now dying back. Next time I will get mealworms or another option to feed my carnivorous plants.

Good food for your plant if you wanted to thrive.
My plant took the food right away and it tells you if your plan is small which mine is to cut it in half so cool to watch it eat thank you.

Non messy great for my Venus plant

It seems to be doing my plant good. It saves me looking for dead insects etc. I used to feed the plant on meal worms. They were ok, but I think these tiny cubes seem to be better.

It says for Venus fly trap food. It made my traps turn brown. When I told the company this. They said it isn't for all carnivorous plants, and as I had opened it and used it I can't have a refund. Do not buy this product.

Arrived opened and appears used. Gave the plant its first feeding today so don’t know how effective it is yet.
