FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I don't think light is a problem. Direct sunlight filtered through a shade cloth is just fine, and I know many growers in the desert southwest that grow all kinds of carnivorous plants outside in the blazing sun. The trick is to give them direct morning sunlight when it's cooler, then shade or dappled light after about 10 or 11 while keeping them in water almost 25/8. The lack of humidity will suck the water out of the media and tray quickly, and the direct sun during the hottest parts of the day will cause them to spontaneously ignite. (Not really, but they can decline rapidly) However, I have a couple of other concerns.
First, it may be planted too deep. It looks like the media settled around the growth point, choking it. It's struggling to put out new leaves.
Next, I see dead bugs in the pot. That's probably a non issue because I only see a few, but those decomposing carcasses will add nutrients to the soil. In the wild, those carcasses generally blow away, but you'll want to clean them out so they don't accumulate in your pot.
Also, you repotted about 6 weeks ago, but into what? That media looks a little odd, maybe coco coir? Personally, I would suggest a repot into LFSM. It can get spendy if you have more than a few plants, but I think the plants do better in it.
Good luck.

Instead of saying 24/7 (24 hours a day, 7 days a week), you say 25/8, denoting a bit more importance.
In this case, a plant that generally experiences wetter and less severe conditions than can normally be found in Arizona, it's of a greater importance to make sure that as close to optimal conditions are being met. 25/8 is just a way to stress that point rather than write a paragraph on how vital it is that they stay moist.
