What’s wrong with my Pinguiculas?!
They’re on moss and carnivorous plant soil. They’re also under a grow light and get misted. How can I save them? #cpclubthursday #Butterwort #Pinguicula
8” pot without drainage

@LuminousEllisia Hi April, you may want to check the amount of light your Ping is getting (using a light meter app eg Photone) and how much distilled water they are getting as they are bog plants so what Jasmine @Seedstarter says applies when it comes to constant water for their roots. I have added posted about dormancy at #cpclubthursday.
Keep in mind that the cooler temperatures may be leading to some dormancy so what’s important is ensuring the rhizome under the surface is healthy so maybe ensure they have water in a dish or tray under the pot. Some more information may help to identify any particular issue.

I suggest you stop misting them and see if that helps. You might be increasing the humidity too much and washing away the dew on the leaves. You also might want to consider making more of a bog-like setting since pings are bog plants, and their roots need to be in contact with water constantly
