Sarracenia purpurea × minor Hood Blocks Rain: Should You Add Water?

Hybrid S. purpurea ssp. purpurea × minor has hoods that seal pitchers—no rain entry. Insects crawl in/out. Worried about nutrition. Add water?

No. Adding water makes pitchers flop. Insects = fertilizer, not energy. Plant grows fine on sun + water alone. It will catch prey eventually. If desired, kill bugs first and drop in—but unnecessary.

This hybrid occurs naturally. Let it be.
