how high does your humidity get

The humidity is much higher at night, maybe reaching 75% on a good day (right now it's 70%). During the day though it's usually around 50%. Sometimes during the winter it dropped to 30% or so (thanks to the heater). I'm just glad it's pitchering again after not doing anything since like October.

Interestingly, the side of the pitcher that gets sunlight is more of a light green with some red while the other side is turning much more reddish. I'll try to get a picture sometime.

Now if only my pitiful rajah would grow well too...

I think it's supposed to be 'Gothica' but it's hard to tell so far. But yeah, no idea how those notches happened, first time.

Thanks everyone!

Some updates:

N. inermis looking good

N. mikei

N. sibuyanensis x copelandii

N. ventricosa x sibuyanensis (I think I've mislabeled it as 'Jungle Bells' ever since I bought it oops)

I thought this was cool

I potted my little ceph into this nice ceramic finally, now I just need to wait for it to grow

And seedlings!

 

[That One Guy]

Hehe looks like the pitcher crushed a seedling in the last pic!
Very nice plants, I especially like the mikei

 

[kevnep]

Ver nice plants!

 

[mass]

I still see more than one ceph in there.

 

[Brokken]

Jungle Bells _IS_ a cross of ventricosa x sibuyanensis.

 

[lance]

Nice pics love the inermis!! Look out, that seedling is about to get crushed by the pitcher! Just curious, but what species or hybrid are those seedlings?

 

[roxorboxor]

The seedlings should be little jambans, but I won't know for sure for quite a while.

Yeah, there's one "bigger" ceph, and two little itty bitty ceph-lets that I tend not to count

True that 'Jungle Bells' is vent x sib, but I bought the plant as vent x sib with no reference to the 'Jungle Bells' part. I added that erroneously a while ago for some reason.
If I understand right, 'Jungle Bells' is one version of the vent x sib cross? Other vent x sib plants would be similar, but not named 'Jungle Bells' right? ( I could be wrong dunno)

Small update.
Just came back from a nursery open house with this:

Newest pitcher

Older pitcher

In other news:
New mikei pitcher

Rajah looking happier

I think 'Black Knight' making a new one

Small maxima x eustachia in small pot

and tiny seeds!

(sorry for the bad quality images oops)
Enjoy!

Hey Roxor, which side is the window facing ? I am growing mine outside as well, wondering about your conditions.

 

[roxorboxor]

This is a south-facing window that gets about 4 hours of direct sun and is pretty bright for the rest of the day. Pretty dry here though, so I try to spray often when I can.

 

[maxima]

Ah cool thanks, I have a southern window as well. It's a wonder yours are pitchering without any cover, only Albomarginata pitchered in dry conditions for me. I had to take the rest outside to increase the humidity.

 

[roxorboxor]

I leave the window itself open 24/7, so cool night air can come in when it pleases. Maybe that helps a bit I dunno.

 

[hcarlton]

Nice platns! And I'm guessing you got a robcantleyi? If so, hope it gets some big pitchers on it soon!

 

[roxorboxor]

Yup! There goes my food money for the next few weeks -_-

 

[dueoka]

Robcantleyi looks great! And what are they seedlings of?
