Having a little trouble with mine. Any tips? I keep them damp.

Good lighting and distilled water. Utricularia, especially the larger leaf variety can be really finicky. I found especially about their water level. I had one in a tray with other carnivorous varieties and it was typically a half full water tray. It kept going a bit brown. I realized it really preferred a 3/4 to 7/8 water up the side of the pot, and its doing much better now
