Very nice update! I have had a similar problem with my Hamata recently. But the browning is going for the pitchers first. Hmmm...
I also noticed that my species have been suffering in general from the higher night temps ~63f or so. Lack of pitchers and some rot. My hope is that they can adjust...
Good to know!
I actually just lost my first 2 plants (of recent memory)... Villosa and Macrophylla to root rot. It's been too hot at night and I have been to greedy with the water. I won't make the same mistake again :(
Very cool stuff! I skipped out on the EP imports, but I did manage to receive a few plants from Wistuba. I noticed a lack of roots as well, especially on the Heliamphora. Do you think this will be an issue?
That's a haul! I hope they do well in the space and recover quickly.
Also N. Hamata x Veitchii whaaaaat??!
Also N. Rajah x Burb x Eddy whaaaaaaaaaaaattttt??!?!?!
So stoked to see what comes of these. I may need to keep a closer eye on BE in the future...
As for your question, my night time...
Thank you!
Definitely happy about the Naga, and I would say it has been one of the most consistent plants I have had. Hope yours is easy to grow as well.
I have a N. Nigra that is in a similar stubborn spot where it has produced 2 tiny leaves and no pitchers in the past year. Still hasn't gone...
Thanks! In the year I have had it, it has put out 3-4 new leaves... :apologetic:
I think it had some shock from the climate changes, but I had also been placing it in low light.
Had to do some cleaning yesterday, so the whole setup is a mess. Luckily some of the plants are doing alright. I apologize in advance for the lighting

Hey,
Yeah it might be more like 2/3 of a gallon per day. I have a heater installed to raise my temps to 81-82 witch dries out the space and thus causes the humidifier to run a bit. Also I have a fan and two air ducts to the outside to allow for air flow 24/7.
Currently I am more concerned with...
Oh nice! I have a 5-gallon tank for humidifier and I would say it needs to be refilled every 5 days or so. In reality I usually fill it up about 1/3 and then refill every 2 days.
Currently I am looking for a solution to cooling my nights enough. The averages are just above 65º at the moment.
Setup and more pics to come. Still working on lighting and spacing, but my job has been tough recently so I haven't had much time.

Looks great! You have put in an impressive amount of work and I am now rethinking some of the decisions I made for my setup to help with any safety or potential water damage.
Do you have any humidistat/humidifier?
Also, how do you reach the plants in the back without having to move the others...
Things to check:
Growth point still intact?
Plant hasn't been uprooted?
Main stem not snapped?
If the answer to these are yes, then you should be fine. I have dropped a few plants before and they have been alright aside from one hamata that went into a 2 month shock. Movement in general seems...
