A Zone 6 SE Kentucky grower bought a S. purpurea and VFT at 75% off, started lowering humidity with cracked domes, and uses a 42W CFL for 12 hours daily. Concerned about temperature swings and insufficient rhizome energy for winter.
It’s too late to acclimate before first frost. Plants need time to adjust to brighter light and changing temperatures. Keep them indoors under lights; skipping dormancy this year is fine. Move outdoors in spring for natural cycles. Our DVD Grow Carnivorous Plants Volume 1 covers North American species: https://www.cobraplant.com/DVD.
Happy growing!
