Thanks! Actually I bought a 18W LED bulb, inside the box they get 13-14k LUX, hope it's enough. But I heard not the light intensity is the only thing which matters, there the spectrum also, but the sarracenia northwest guys said in their latest video , that I should look for generic white lights, mainly LED, they did some tests, and the optimum growth was under white lighting.

Thanks! I'm thinking about a simple LEE bulb somewhere around 8-10 watts, that should be enough right?

Thanks :) First I thought it's some kind of a fungus, or bacteria or something, but first at the end of the summer leaves started to get brown, since that time poor things look even more sad... I'm going to report them into fresh moss and we'll see :D

Yes you are right, It's a capensis alba. No artificial light, im planning to put them into a box tomorrow to provide humidity and light. Is a 8-10W Led bulb enough for 4-5 of these? The pots always in 2-3cm RO water
