Hi John, you asked:

> Would "peat tea" perhaps help the coloring of a VFT?

If your VFT's are already planted in peat moss, and the stuff
isn't very old, then I can't image that they would color up
with the addition of peat tea. The peat tea is supposed to
introduce tannins, various alkaloids, and a lower pH to plants.
VFT's in peat moss should already be getting all of these
things I would think.

Why do you have no other choice in Arizona but to grow the
VFT's under lights? I thought there is plenty of sun
in Arizona, just low humidity.
