Question
how much water should i keep in the pictures at all time?

Answer
Hi Adam,

In nature pitchers (Pitcher, not picture) get some rainwater in them, so keeping a little in them is good.  If a plant is healthy it will make it's own fluid for the too.  Don't fill them to the top, however, that isn't beneficial.  Here's more information:  http://www.growcarnivorousplants.com/Articles.asp?ID=266  http://www.growcarnivorousplants.com/Grow-Carnivorous-Plants-DVD-3-p/01113.htm

Good Growing!
