The water sits right below the soil level. The roots reach for the water. It's okay for the roots to sit in water as long as there is an air gap. The water should never reach the soil box

It looks like an earthbox or city picker type water wickening system. Those work great.
That isn't how this particular system works.

It isn't a wicking system on this one. It's just the soil submerged in the reservoir.
For about $50 you can just get a cheap Aero Garden knockoff hydroponic system with light and pump..

Good for carnivorous plants though. ✌️
I was actually thinking of mentioning that but figured it was too niche to be useful. Considered getting one for some Drosera I'm separating soon, but decided that the trays I have are perfectly fine.
Yeah I've got some different species of Venus flytrap, a sundew that's actually blooming right now, and some nepenthes. 👍
Just get a system that does that. I suspect this is much smaller than you're realizing.
Very nice! I've got VFTs, 3 species of sundew, and a handful of different types of Sarracenia. Everything just grows outside year round for me and are some of the easiest plants I have. Used to have 3 different Nepenthes and a half dozen different Pings inside but got rid of those when I no longer had the space.
Yep, once you figure out how they grow, they are one of the easiest. I grow a lot of stuff but I definitely enjoy those, especially when I have flies in the house. They don't last long LOL
Oh and where are you located? I'm in California... Good sun year round for them almost.

YMMV based on your region
