For the past few weeks growing my carnivorous plants I have not been paying attention to how much water to give them. I assumed that because of the hot and dry climate here that just watering them every day will be ok. But now I worry I'm keeping them too wet. The top soil is a dark colour similar to when I first made my soil mix. Is the colour of the soil a good indicator? I can't tell when digging the soil or when lifting the pot.
I use the water tray method and my tallest pots are 12cm in height. I've been watering up until their is 0.5cm to 1cm of water at most, letting the tray dry before watering again.
