Once again a very nice forum and nice to read all good info for sure!
 
Welcome!

I am not sure what the climate is in Sweden, But if possible, the Venus Flytraps would be better off outside in full sun. If it isn't, your setup sounds like it might work, though I am not sure. I hope that this helps
 
Hiya, welcome to TF!

Yes, I too would recommend moving the VFTs outside during the summer and spring, or when it's not too chilly. They like full sun better than artificial lights.
