I have a few sundews, sphatulata, burmanni, burmanni HD, toakiensis, paradoxa. Our house only have access to the sunlight around 1pm to 5pm. The temperature falls between 38-45 degrees celcius. Would they survive the heat if I exposed them? I am currently taking care of them indoors with 2pcs growlights.

In my experience, even in the shade, those sundews would not handle those temperatures well.
I would suggest just keeping them inside.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

Thanks for the input guys. I will probably just keep them indoors I think.
