Normally, for Drosera, "rule of tumb", you can provide water level at 1/4 of yours pots.

Water level for my drosera will be around 1.5inches +- for all size of pots. (because, it is impossible difference water level for difference pots since im using 21 * 16inches water tray for my CPs)

I dont have D.Alicia, so, im not sure they will self polite or not.

For Drosera that dont self polite. May be you can force 2 flower from difference individual to "kiss" each others... hehe... Im new to this as well. Now, im doing so for 3 of my D. binata var multifida f. extrema that is flowering. But, im lazy to collect those dried flower... :spinning:

Donny is right, D. alicae self pollinate. Your plant don't look very healty from my obsercation as the new leaves are becoming smaller and smaller. I also suggest that you cut off two of the flower spikes so the plant don't have to spend too much energy flowering. One spike should yield you enough seeds.

Give it more light and feed it a little, I would recommend too.
