😱 Did you know? Venus flytraps don’t actually NEED you to hand-feed them to survive! They’re carnivorous but get most of their energy from photosynthesis — just like any other plant. The bugs they catch act more like a natural fertilizer (extra nitrogen & nutrients) that helps them grow bigger traps and stay extra healthy. ✅ If your flytrap is outdoors in full sun: It will catch plenty of flies, ants, and spiders on its own. You rarely need to do anything! ✅ Indoors: You can feed it occasionally (1-2 small bugs per month max, like a fly or bloodworm) if you want faster growth. But don’t overdo it — triggering too many traps wastes the plant’s energy. Pro tips for happy flytraps: • Use only distilled, rainwater, or RO water (tap water kills them with minerals) • Bright direct sunlight (or strong grow lights) — 8+ hours a day • Nutrient-free soil (peat moss + perlite mix) • Never use fertilizer! Drop a ❤️ if you have a Venus flytrap and tell me: indoor or outdoor? Watch it loop and see that satisfying snap again! 🪴✨ #VenusFlytrap #CarnivorousPlants #PlantCare #Flytrap

Prepping for the ultimate 2025 challenge! 🚤🌸 After 5 incredible years cruising Japan on my Gibsea 402, I’m gearing up for Chasing the Cherry Blossom 2, a journey to sail the length of Japan during Sakura Season—25 years after doing it by bicycle. 🗾 This haulout in Okinawa is to ready my boat (and myself) for the adventure of a lifetime as I celebrate turning 70! 💪⛵ Follow along for every step of this epic odyssey! 🌊 This is day 11 and 12 of the haul out. I actually splashed on day 8, but on the next day, I discovered a problem, and so tomorrow I have to haul out again. Are you a `never-too-later` like me?
