Easy fix for truncata temperature problems?

[zdoctor]

Hi all,

I recently had the opportunity to buy a N. truncata for a very nice price. Although I don't have lowland conditions, I thought that I would take a chance for the price and that it would at least fare well since my N. Veitchii is growing like crazy in the same conditions (~75F days, ~68 nights ). My truncata put out one very tiny leaf, and has now refused to do anything. I was wondering if you guys have any ideas to raise the temperature fairly easily? I used to keep reptiles, and have heating pads, heating lights and a large tank, but I feel like its overkill to set up my 100 gal terrarium for a single seedling.

I doubt temperature is your problem. 75-68 sounds perfectly fine. No form of this species requires hot, humid true lowland temperatures to grow well. When you say you got it recently, how recently? You may just be expecting it to grow faster than it does.
