I am not sure about this one. How can I tell if it is healthy or not?

You currently have a terrible mix for pinguicula, no offence. I used to do this mix, now I do it only to pop leaf pullings. They hate sphag IME. Use a 1/2 peat perlite mix instead. The mix you have here can be used for temperate pings, which like sphag.
New growth looks good. If I can tell it looks slightly etiolated, maybe a little more light. Gracilis did best for me in full humidity, but you must acclimate it.
Please respond with further questions or clarification.
