Maybe you were acclimating it too quickly?

A quick change to lower humidity and hotter sun can do that.

I hate to say it, but that might just be it. I noticed the leaves went from being bright, neon green to like this mushy faded green as well. It's more humid outside than inside, but I think I'll just keep my spatulata inside from now on, I feel like when I grew them outside they didn't like being under the direct Georgian sun that much compared to my growlights.

I think it's starting to grow again, especially when I compare it to images from last week. I think I can see some leaves slowly unfurling?

Last week:


Today:

I guess it's ok now since it's decided to grow a flower again lmao.

It's weird, this is the fourth flower it's grown, but it's never managed to reach the seeding stage.

Update: sundew seems to be recovering and it's growing two flowers now, so I guess its happy? Still not a lot of dew, and it looks like it has two growth points now, but the new growth seems kind of spindly.

It looks like it is doing better! I don't know if this happens with Drosera, but I know VFTs sometimes flower as a last resort. I'm not trying to put you down and I think you're doing a great job. I'm just saying that as an fyi so you're not surprised if something happens.

When my spats/toks were near dying after getting watered with 700 TDS water, most of them shot up flowerstalks. I'd cut them off.

This would be like the 4th time I've cut off flowerstalks on this plant. He's such a problem child.

Might as well I guess, since he's recovering from heatshock anyways. Thankfully I took 3 leaf pullings from this plant and they're growing up nice and big and strong after propagating them in water. I feel so stupid honestly, it was recovering and super dewy under the lights when I repotted them the first time, should have just left them indoors.
