Those are weeds for me ...
LFS, high level water, light, RH and temp. They are in the same tank I keep my petiolaris.

My adelae sits in a little plastic betta container with LFS in a north facing basement windowsill. Grows reliably year after year. I water it maybe once per month. My prolifera and Pinguicula primuliflora also do very well on the same windowsill. On the cool side all year around with at most bright indirect light for part of the day.

The "3 sister" dews are supposed to like cool/humid/low light conditions. Works for me anyway for prolifera and adelae.

I grow all 3 in my terrarium Basically HL conditions and high humidity. Adelae, prolifera can be quite wet. Schizandra won't tolerate constant wetness and does best being at the same wetness level of a cephalotus IMO
Mine are all under a 2 bulb t-5 with a 14 hour photoperiod
I also have Adelae red and green growing in a separate location in open air and room humidity. Those are under a 4 bulb t-8 and do well also.
Adelae is a fairly easy grower and definately the easier one of the three sisters.
Keep it moist and give it some light and your off. I got divisions I planted in 4" pots within a year or less they will push pups and you will fill the entire pot from a single plant

I'll take the like as they look good I transplanted about 2 months ago. They are in 50/50 peat and Silica, I did put a little dried sphag as a top dressing, they sit in about 1/3" water, the ones pictured are in tall pots, but I do have a couple in shorter pots that look just as good. They have window light and fluorescent T5s and the room temp is currently between 20 & 24ish

peat/perlite works for me too but plants looks less healthier. La plante est plutôt jaune, étiolée et faîble en général avec la tourbe?
