Separating offsets/plantlets - Drosera Adelae

Hello Friends, thanks for all the great advice.

I have a D. Adelae that appears to have spawned 3 small babies. One is getting pretty big with several round sticky leaves. What is the best way and time to separate them from the mother plant?

I only recentlyed repotted this guy from a 3in pot he came in from Cobraplant.com to a nice 5in pot. I want to make sure the little ones can stand on their own before I separate them but I also don't want to overcrowd my mama.

On a separate note, I also have a Lowes Cube D. Adelae which is recuping very well. When I got him his leaves where dark green, not sticky and round. Now the leaves are juicey and new growth is forming longer thinner leaves. I've read there may be two different strains (broad leaf and lance leaf) but I am thinking this is a conditional effect.

I also went against Cobraplant advice to leave the terrarium out. I put large soda bottle tops with the lid open over my sundews and they are very thankful.

cheers.
