i just got one and dont no wat to do... i also have a 60 watt floresent how many inces should it be above the plant?
 
Your PM was correct. just make a hole to fit the roots, set them in there push the media back around the plant. As far as the lamp, it should be fine. But a window would work too.
 
kk thx for the plant they look a good there sprouting a whole bunch of new leafs up
 
my sundew arent dewy is this just from shipping or should i change the conditions
 
if it was bareroot, give them a few days/weeks.

Also the best tool I have found for potting small plants and seedlings is a pencil. The sharp end makes a nice hole, and the eraser makes nice work of pushing the media back in place.
 
tangle the roots gently in a single strand of some high quality sphagnum, then plant that in whatever media your using. the roots recover very quickly this way.
