Outside for winter?

15 years ago

I received a kit to grow my own VFT, and i only planted 1 seed in the terrarium because it was so small. Its growing great but now that the temperature has dropped, do I put it outside? We get frost some nights but not many. Should I put it in the garage instead? Thanks!

I would keep doing what you're doing, keeping it in growth mode for this winter only and when the temps get warm enough in the spring, bring it outside.
