I doubt it was a problem that I couldn't see..I had everything perfect...or at least perfect to what the thermometer and hygrometer were reading. The low humidity high temp thing seems about right..it's 80-90 degrees constantly in there and the water dries up pretty fast with the fan...
Ugh..today one of my flourecents wen't out and my fogger stopped for some odd reason...the Bical INSTANTLY started to look iffy and most of the leaves turned black....I stuck in a fish tank heater which was my reserve if this kind of thing happened but I think it is too late for my bical...All...
I currently have purchased a 4 inch diameter Bical...and I've had it for about a month..or so...It seems to like my condtions...I have two flourecents that are 15 watt in a ten gallon tank...Humidity has never dropped below 60...because..I don't think it can :P So far it has made four pitchers...
Ok man..you need to slow down...First off, you can't have a "perfect terrarium"..only me! lol..j/k Anyways..The first thing you'll want to do is get a thermometer/hydrometer at petsmart/petsco...or a local pet store..Next is a fogger/humidifyer. I use a fogger and fan..for visual effects..and...

My bet is that it is the clay pot. For what I can see..there is no drainange...and it's standing in water..that's a big nono..it can't absorb water that well..and it rots the root..Put it in a...dunkin' donutscup..and poke a bunch of holes at the bottom! If the clay pot DOES have drainage..I...
I don't think this is something new..this has also happened with my red dragon/green dragon bought from here..I decided to not put it into dormancy yet..and the new traps look like typical ones with cotton-candy pink soft color on the inside of the traps.
when you go to shows on a yearly bases and/or you go to shows half a country away..because you here it's "the best around" and/or you got to shows to sell herps..instead of seeing a show in town and stumble upon it.
What you really need to do is cross a VFT with a Nepenthes...Can anyone one say..man eating plant?
Anywhoo..I'm instrested in what the plant would look like...dewy traps? lol
