It requires a little bit of zeroing in, but after getting a proper light, for a Drosera Binata all you have to do is keep it in a tray of standing water, either distilled or reverse osmosis (you can use rain water, but I don’t have a reliable way of collecting it at the moment).
The skull container has a Utricularia Reniformis - that one gets a little trickier and requires a little bit more of paying attention, but same deal essentially. You tend to let that one dry out a bit more between watering. This is my first Utricularia, and it hasn’t flowered yet, but it’s giving me tons of new growth every time I look… hopefully soon!
Working from home helps, you can notice stuff right away. Once you get it zeroed in, a lot of it is just water and make sure the timer ticks on for the light.
Wow that looks so interesting! Is this set up hard to maintain?

That’s really cool. It sounds straightforward but I’m sure it needs attention and practice in order to develop a good intuition for it.
