Those bulbs seem decent. I grow my two D. capensis under two 100 watt CFL's that use 23 watts and 1600 lumens. They're growing pretty well and I hope that they can flower during the beginning of spring. I recommend getting a lamp-timer too. They take care of the hassle of turning the lights on and off and cost about 5-10 bucks.

Thanks. I bought 2 bulbs today that are CFL and produce 1640 lumens nice and bright for about 18 bucks sylvania brand bulbs. How far away are you suppose to keep the light its warm but never gets hot you can touch the bulb with your hand and its never hot. I hope it does good how long do your plants need to be in the light 24/7 or is it okay to leave them in the sun then at night put them under the light

For D. adelae(lance-leaf sundew), you should keep the lights no farther than 11 inches and no closer than 5 inches. As for light preference, if the plants get 3 to 5 hours of indirect sunlight with some humidity they shouldn't have the need for artificial lighting. If you wanted to grow them under lights with no sunlight, than they should have a photo-period of about 9-10 hours(winter/autumn) to 12-14 hours(spring/summer) daily. As the plants are transitioning between seasons, you want to GRADUALLY raise the light amount so that they don't experience shock or potential leaf-burn from the instant change in light.

Good luck growing them : )

Thanks for the help man my plants are doing so much better alot greener since I put them in the light I got one light for all of them my butterwort and venus fly trap and my two sundews.
