Long wait again

Now after seeds got germinated my hopes got high again n I started regularly checking the seedlings to see when they will grow carnivorous leafs n start hunting. But I didnt know that growing cps from seeds takes lots of patience, according to me seedlings were growing really slow, I wanted them to grow really fast and after consulting some experts online I came to know that I would have to feed them to make them grow fast. But the problem was the seedling was so small that it wouldnt be able to handle even smallest insect like an ant.
If I feed any thing bigger it me result into mold as plant wont be able to digest the insect completely.
So I had to leave it the ways it is and let it grow without feeding it.

Finally

Well after sowing seeds and almost checking the pot every day I was lil sad since I couldnt see anything happening so in disappointment I just filled the ziplock bag in which kept the pot with 1inch deep water and left it out side. I stopped looking it regularly thinking nothing will happen, then one fine day I decided to throw everything away since nothing is happening. When I opened the ziplock bag I notices lil tiny seedlings.

Finally my hard work paid off and some of the seeds germinated. I was really happy and couldnt wait to see these seedlings grow n start kicking some insect butts. I placed the pot under 30 Watt cfl inside my almirah so that it can grow safely inside without being disturbed by pigeons or other stuff
