    Keep it sitting in distilled or rainwater at all times and give it the brightest light you have. Don’t plant in normal soil as it is sensitive. I use sphagnum moss. Don’t activate the traps. They can only close a number of times before dying. Traps turn black when they die. It’s normal for older traps or ones that have closed a bunch.

    Sphagnum moss mixed with perlite & a water dish underneath. It’s also recommended to keep them outside since they need a lot of sun

    make sure it’s always sitting in a tray with pebbles and distilled water. use sphagnum moss and perlite/pumice. don’t purposely activate traps unless you are feeding because it takes a lot of energy. don’t feed human foods like meat or cheese, only insects . feeding isn’t necessary, it’s just kinda like extra nutrients. they love bright light and humidity

    And you can make distilled water by getting some water in a cup and letting it sit for 24 hours then its distilled
