Maxsea 16-16-16 is a kelp-based fertilizer safe to use on many types of carnivorous plants (see exceptions below). It is so gentle it can even be used on live sphagnum moss! Maxsea comes in powder form and is best used as a foliar fertilizer. Foliar feeding is beneficial if the plants aren’t catching enough bugs on their own as it helps to make up for lost nutrients. To foliar feed carnivorous plants and boost growth, mix 1/4 of a teaspoon per gallon of water and lightly mist leaves with it every 3-4 weeks.

A great solution for my indoor butterworts that rarely get to catch any bugs, and it makes them much nicer looking than when I used to drop bloodworms on their leaves.

Have only used it once on my Nepenthes plants so will reserve judgement for a couple of months
