New North American Pitcher Plant parent here.

>I am growing VTFs as well.

Any pointers and tips to help ensure a great grow? (For both PP and VTF)

I have conducted a lot of research but I wish to hear of personal experiences.

I rehydrate dehydrated blood worms for my VTFs. Will that work well for my pitchers?

Pic related is Delinda, the Pitcher Plant.

Fun fact-
Pitcher plants support a group of commensal moths.the larvae live inside the pitcher plant and the adults will use it for shelter.theres even a picture plant mosquito that doesn't bite humans

Ooh that would be interesting - to provide a breeding ground for another species. I would be proud.

Last time I checked since the native habitats of pitcher plants (pocosins and bogs) are declining so are the commensal species of pitcher plants meaning you would be creating a possible breeding ground for rate species

That's what I have read. I hope to make sure my pitcher plant thrives. I was hoping someone had some tips from personal experience, something that I haven't read yet.

There is a fucking plant general which is pretty much a carnivorous plant general. Stop shitting up the board with more general threads

Seriously check the fucking catalog for an existing general, before you start a fucking general
