I recently got more carnivorous plants. ,serricinia leu cant spell the name,adrovonda,utricularia vulgaris I believe,drosera intermedia and another typical venus flytrap,all of the plant came healthy but I believe that they were kept outside and are dormant right now,they ar now inside my small grow area,somewhere between 65 and 70 degrees I think and I want to know when my plants will wake up from their dormancy and begin to grow for me,for now they are all staying indoors for the next 2 or 3 year,my utricularia and aldrovanda are both sitting in small clear glasses of rainwater and the water they came shipped in,is there anything about thier aquatic care I should be aware of

You gotta give supplemental light for the VFT and it will start growing larger it’s seemingly affected by the photo spectrum and time of sunlight.
I can’t say about the other plants.

Thank you,I have a led grow light that's pink/red in the color it puts out,all my CP and smaller plants are sitting about 1 -1.5 feet away from it,dont remember what brand I have,I just remember that one having good reviews and not costing 200 dollars for me to get into carnivorous plants, I'll look into the photospectrum more,lighting can be very confusing in my opinion
