How long does it take for a Venus flytrap to open? Why doesn't it open?

1. Opening time

The clamps of the Venus flytrap will usually open within a few hours, so there is no need to worry too much. However, there are cases where the phone has just been purchased and has not been opened for a week. At this time, you need to find out the reason.

2. Reasons for not opening

There are many reasons for this situation. First of all, it may be because it is eating, so it uses the clamps to digest. Another reason is that its own secretions stick to the clamp, making it unable to open. Another reason may be that the environment for its growth is not suitable, so we have to adapt to local conditions.

3. What to do

1. If the clamp does not open due to eating, we don’t need to worry about it, it will open naturally after digestion;

2. If it is caused by one's own secretions, we just need to clean the stuff on the clip and keep it fertile. After a while, it will open naturally.

3. If it is caused by an unsuitable growing environment, we need to observe it more closely. We can put it in a bag and keep it in a well-lit place, but avoid direct sunlight.
