Has anyone had success growing sundews?

While shopping one day I passed up some Venus fly traps, and cape sundews. Doing some research it sounds like sundews will eat just about every flying insect in your grow rooms, but has anyone actually been able to grow them well?

I bought one and upon closer inspection looks as if it does not have any sticky nectar yet.

Death to fungus gnats.

Its been two days and I have transplanted my sundew as its roots were sticking out. Also purchased a gallon of distilled water, and changed up my ventilation system a bit to give it more humidity. I expect it to do little to nothing for two weeks. If no dewdrops form by then, I will have to reduce the photo period to 16/8 hours instead of 18/6.

Just as well, my fungus gnat problem seems to have vanished at just the threat of a sundew. However I heard that fox farm comes with fungus gnats. Buying nemotodes, chemicals, or using neem oil all the time isn't very appealing. Really hoping to see dewdrops soon...

After transplanting in pure sphagnum peat moss, and setting in a tray full of water my sundew is starting to acclimate and grow a few dewdrops. After a bit more research it sounds like a sundew can easily grow in the conditions found in most grow rooms, as long as there is plenty of light and its soil remains quite damp. I shall have pictures coming as soon as it becomes completely covered.

Pimpy I wanna sundew it reminds me of a book by ra salvatore

I am a dragonlance fan myself. Salvatore seems cool, on wiki.

Well it is official. A sundew is a great friend to have if you have trouble with fungus gnats. Ever since its dew came out full force its been rapidly catching all the gnats in my vegetative chamber.

Just make sure it gets a lot of light and be careful to not be too vigorous with the airflow. When you buy one carefully rinse out some sphagnum peat moss with distilled water, and use it as a medium for a transplant. Its a good idea to keep its container smaller so it can be moved to where its needed easily. After transplanting set the pot in a tray of distilled water. It grows in swamps so it likes extremely moist soil, but not completely waterlogged. Use -ONLY- distilled water. I suspect it could be a very good candidate for hydroponics, but as far as that goes I am clueless, and intimidated with the idea of trying anything hydro.

I was so happy to see how quickly the plants moist conditions along with its fragrant dew attracting these pests like a magnet. Way better than any fly trap you can hang IMO.

I went to the plant store trying to buy a sundew plant. No luck, the guy said they are out of season now, I live in Nor-cal. Any link to buy them online? Or someone want to sell me a cut off their plant?
