Welcome to the forum and the hobby. It'll be fun. There's lots of knowledgeable people here that will be a big help. There's a few folks like me that don't know much but will give you all kinds of advice.
It's definitely different from your average houseplant hobby!!! Flytraps are really cool, as are pitchers plants, but for some reason sundews appeal to me the most.
Lots of sundew seeds available to new users in the forum seed bank's "Level One", check it out! You get to request one item plus a "bonus". Personally I'd go with "D. filiformis filiformis "Temperate"" as my request and add "Mixed Capes" as my bonus. filiformis are the threadleaf sundews, my favorite. The mixed capes that I got as a "bonus" had *great* germination!
*Don't use any MiracleGro products, espeically their peat moss due to added fertilizer. The perlite has some, too, but a much smaller amount. I steer clear of anything from MiracleGro.
*Rinse your growing medium...a good mix is 50:50 peat moss to perlite. I rinse each separately. I recommend a paint strainer bag for rinsing the ingredients in. These are bags that you can get at hardware stores (or Amazon) to fit inside 5-gallon buckets. They make rinsing *much* easier, in my opinion.
*Do not use tapwater unless you know the TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) are below 50ppm). Instead use rainwater, distilled water, reverse osmosis (RO) water...you can even use water from a dehumidifier if you use one though some people seem to worry about copper from the coils (I've never heard of anybody have an actual problem with it, though). I prefer rainwater as it's the cheapest and I'm blessed to live in a rural area of south Alabama and I have a metal roof...my rainwater usually tests from 1ppm or 2ppm. A TDS meter is a simple gadget that can take the guesswork out of deciding if your tapwater or rainwater is "good". They run around $15 on Amazon. Here's the one I use...

*Most recommendations are for 4 hours of direct sun...or more. Some sundews do fine with a lower amount of windowsill light as do some nepenthes in an east facing window. Flytraps and pitcher plants tend to require the highest intensity of light and do best outdoors. Indoors they need a substantial light source...and many people invest in grow light setups to accommodate them.
*Use only plastic pots or well-glazed ceramic pots. Don't use terracotta pots...they leach minerals into the growing mix. Don't use metal as they may impart metals and also will rust due to the acidity of the peat moss.
*Beware of tree rats (squirrels) if growing outside. They are terrorists with a murderous agenda towards carnivorous plants. Folks have built all kinds of cages and whatnot to keep the rodents at bay. I've made some simple cages out of hardware cloth. Just a warning... They're evil....
Just some talking points. If I goofed somebody will be along to clean my mess up. As I said, there's lots of good folks on the forum...you'll meet'em! The big thing is to HAVE FUN!!!!!
