Also it is in distilled water
좋아요 1개I had mine in sphagnum moss that had been rehydrated with distilled water in a nursery pot sitting on a dish that had a bit of distilled water in a bright spot, and would just refill the dish when the water was low . It would constantly bloom and had new growth!

it could be leggy from too little light, how much sun is it getting?

좋아요 1개Nearly killed mine when I watered it with tap. The droopy traps are most likely going to fall off soon even if you water it will distilled water. They’ll start turning black and will not longer be useful. Feed 1-2 of the traps, put it in sphagnum moss, and let it get direct sun from a window. Trust me in 2 weeks you’ll see new traps coming in. Cut off the older traps once the new ones open. Keep those traps moist CONSTANTLY, never let it dry out or they will die. I attached a photo of mine just for reference.
