Just wondering if anyone has grown Darlingtonia under 24h light cycle ?

You can up your photo period when they are actively growing.
Boost it up to 17 hours on and see how they respond.
My seedlings are kept about 18" under a T8 shop light.
At first they were fed springtails...thousands of springtails were bred and sprinkled on the media surface.
Once the plants got large enough, just recently, they have been taking down D. melanogaster flightless fruit flies.
They are gluttonous for fruit flies...several of the pitchers on my largest seedling have blackened from the top, due to overfeeding.
But as the phrase still resonates in my memory... "My healthiest plants were my best fed plants"....someone said that once...never forgot it.

I recently read your thread on you growing a Darlingtonia in a 13 inch pot inside, can you elaborate on growing mature Darlingtonia inside ?
