Stenophylla

Here's a few pictures of my stenophylla. Anyone have large mature plants? do they speed up as they age? Mine has been pretty slow so far.

My friend has a 6 inch diameter plant that grows about as slow as a parakeet learns to talk: SLOWLY

I guess I won't be seeing any mature lower pitchers anytime soon if it keeps up at this rate then.
 
Mine looks similar to yours, maybe a bit smaller. We have the exact same pot, so we probably got it from the same nursery. Mine grows as slow as glass flows (it is an amorphous solid after all.)
 
I have not repotted it. I have seen people complain about their mix before. I haven't had any issues with it so far, but when I do repot, I change to a different mix. I don't like how it decomposes eventually, but it lasts for a good while.
 
Def a slower grower, and slow to adapt to what's going on.

Once it gets settled in though, don't think twice about touching it, or else you're gonna be sticky in a heart beat.
