A Venus flytrap will reopen at different times depending on if the flytrap digested its catch or not. The plant has small openings available after snapping shut that allow small prey that is not worth digesting to escape. When this happens, the Venus flytrap will reopen within 12 hours. If digestion occurs, the plant will reopen about ten days later.

Which is more fun a TickleMe Plant or a Venus Fly Trap?

The Venus Fly Trap always reminds me of the Little Shop of Horrors. It does seem to take a long time before the leaves of the Venus Fly Trap re-open one you feed it (up to a month) On the other hand the TickleMe Plant won't hurt a fly and the leaves re-open in minutes. The TickleMe Plant was also very easy to grow from seeds in the Classroom kit I found on line which included a book that had some fun experiments as well.

How long does a venus fly trap take to open back up without any food in it?

A Venus flytrap typically takes about 5-7 days to fully reopen after closing, even without capturing any prey. The plant uses energy stored in its leaves to power the trap closure and reopening process. If the trap remains closed for an extended period without capturing any food, it may eventually turn black and die.
