Basal concern

DerbyCityNeps

Always a newbie- Previously glider14
Ok so finally i got everything situated and I noticed that my ventratas basal shoot has a thin black line going down it. I have two ideas of what this could be...1. new leaf sprouting(most likely) or 2. fungal/ bactrial/ etc. thing. I am almost absolutly sure its a new leaf, but just to be sure I need to know... also how do I know if a developing pitcher is "doomed"?
thanks,
glider
 
any pics will help. but like other people said, ventrata is indestrctible!

Doesn't look like anything to worry about, it looks like the marks from that part of the leaf rubbing against something. Or a bug could have had a bit of a nibble. Unless it starts spreading, I wouldn't worry about it.
