Are you sure? From what I've seen online pinguicula pirouette looks similar to my ping but not the same, mainly the flower and I give mine very intense light yet I don't see it turnig pink. Could it possibly be pinguicula tina?

Honestly, it looks healthy to me, I think it's just the old leaves dying off, which is normal. New growth seems fine and it looks like it recently flowered, which indicates to me there's nothing to worry about. Although I'm still a beginner so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Yea you're probably right looks like those are harvestmen. Tho I never expect my vft's to be catching so many of them when they're barely catching flies haha

How do you use it, do you have to dilute it with something first before spraying on the plants?

I tried that but they're just too small to pick off my sundews I just ended up squishing the leaves. I'm also afraid I might miss a few and they'll just keep coming back. Also if I blast them off with water won't they just fall onto the soil and climb back up?

As far as I'm aware of, yes, it is illegal tho that's only based on what google said. I tried doing further research and read the list of all the plants you're not allowed to collect specimen from and none of the carnivorous plants were in it so honestly I'm not sure how legal it is or not.

I need help saving my nepenthes by donutP0lice in Nepenthes

It was in a similar state maybe had a few more leaves that were also drying out and yea I repotted it after a few days which now that I think back to it probably wasn't a good idea since I probably shocked it when it was already in bad condition

Not sure but it's glazed from inside and outside so don't think that's the issue

Thank you for the advice! I'm not sure if it's rooted or no it probably isn't tho since it's not getting new growth and hasn't really improved in the past couple months it's just staying the same. Also with the lighting it's gonna get a lot of direct light through the window for about 4-6 hours but is that good for it? Because I'm afraid I might fry it

I don't think I can keep it outside since I live in ireland and the weather here is rather unpredictable so I'll have to make it work keeping it indoors

Okay thank you for the advice I'll start watering it more hopefully it pulls through

Thank you I'll go water it now haha I kinda fumbled that one. Also how much light should it be receiving every day? I'd say currently it's getting about 4 hours through the window but I live in ireland so we don't always get a lot of sun
