Hey all. Should I trim back the sphagnum or will new pitchers still get plenty of light and find their way up just fine?

Thanks.Image

They seem good the way they are right now. You vould trim if you want, you can use the trimmed heads in other pots or place them on a flat tray and grow more LFS.

I would trim it. But that's just me.

Very nice plant :) For a clumping species/hybrids like your, from my experience, if the light can reach the 'rhizome' your plant will produce more growing points. But its not a must :) Your moss look fine !

All cleaned up. That was stressful, so scared I'd snip an upcoming pitcher.
