hey guys, I have some questions about the plants

Firstly, is it ok to use tap water left to sit for 24 hours? or must use rainwater?

Secondly, must the soil be in direct contact with water in the dish below? or should it be propped up?

Thirdly, has anyone here tried keeping the small ones like D. burmanii in a closed/partially closed terrarium? I have a large kicap bottle that I have no use for, just thought I'd try it out.

gonna get a couple of sundews tomorrow! biggrin.gif

use tap water for all my cp with no problem smile.gif

depending on species actually, if sundew, a water tray(pot sit on tray filled with water around half the pot height) under full sun is good smile.gif

For Burmanii, I fail to keep them well under bright condition but they blossom under full sun...but given up on drosera as I found them grow like weed once establish, went into VFT instead smile.gif
