Today we are going to talk about the pros and cons of using peat moss vs sphagnum moss as a substrate for growing a venus flytrap. I do my best
to break down which substrate would work better for each kind of grower.

I determined, if you are a beginner you should probably go with peat moss as there is less chance to kill your plant but it will grow slower. If you are more experienced and have a good grip on water levels then I would recommend going with long fiber sphagnum moss as your venus flytrap will grow 2-3 times faster.

It really comes down to what your experience level is and what your comfortable with. Both seem to grow about the same once they hit adulthood in both soil mixes. It might come down to which one you enjoy looking at. I prefer the look of the sphagnum moss but I know a lot of people appreciate the earthy look of peat moss.

Hopefully, you have enough info to make up your mind! Sound off in the comments with any questions or opinions you might have!
