Hi everyone! I've been having some problems with my recently purchased sundews. The leaves seem to be really dry, their is no dew production at all. My capensis have been suffering from brown tips as well after I repotted them there. Temps are at a constant 27C and humidity is between 70-90. I've been leaving water in the tray and the soil is pretty wet, but all of my leaves are bone dry. I did spray diluted orchid focus when I transplanted them, all my other cps don't seem to mind it. I'm attaching pics of them below. Any tips that'll help me save them would be really appreciated as i really don't know what i'm doing wrong.

They need a few hours to unpack and reorganize their house. They'll be fine tomorrow.

I believe if they're going to die, they will rapidly deteriorate and you wouldn't be confused that it's dead.

Hi Paul, thanks for responding! I was thinking it was transplant shock plus they were shipped barefoot. I forgot to mention in my post that they’ve been in that tub for about a week now. They’ve been like that since I got them. I’m just worried about them being that dry as my capensis never did that when i repotted it last time.
