r/Nepenthes

Hello! I have a nepenthes growing outdoors in zone 10. It's growing pitchers that are trumpet shaped, like the lower ones in the photo, but has always had fat sausage shaped pitchers. Is this typical?

Does anyone know what Nepenthes this is? Also, is the pitcher so small because the plant isn’t fully grown? Or is there a different reason?

I tried to cultivate moss outdoors to add to my nepenthes and now I have loads of these tiny white bugs crawling all over everywhere. Does anyone know what they are and what weapons grade insecticide to use? I want to absolutely destroy them. Thank you for any help.

N. ventricosa x hamata that I acquired in February.

It’s an intermidate hybrid and it’s growing in an intermediate climate, just getting into autumn so the temp range is 14-18 degree nights and 21-14 degree days. All my other intermediates are fine, it’s just this one that’s struggling. It’s been kept moist and hasn’t dried out or sat in water

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

She just put out her first upper pitcher about a month ago and now she’s flowering! Do I need to do anything with/to it?

My veitchii (m) started getting brown and curling after shipping. What could be happening?

Hi :]

I got this Nepenthes.

The tag says 'hybrid' but nothing else. I think it might be a singalana or maybe a 'Rebecca Soper', but I'm unsure.

Could you help me identify it?

Thanks!

(The last two photos were taken in the sun.)

Found at a local nursery and it was unlabeled, the workers also didn’t know the species or cultivars.

My guess in ventrata but I honestly have no clue. Any guesses?

hey so how red is too red? I've got several nepenthes and they're doing alright but a couple of them are turning quite red on their leaves. I only worry because my first nepenthes almost died because of too much light, but that was Drosera capensis level light and it turned brown and dry very quickly so it's not like this where the leaves just seem to have developed a nice tan. pictured is a (first pic) Nepenthes Dactylifera that's been in my hands for just a couple weeks and the second/third are one that I haven't identified yet that I've had since the middle of January. at what point does normal coloration turn to sunburn?

Mine originally started in a humidity dome, but I've adapted it to outdoors with 40 to 50 percent humidity, and gets sun from 7 am to 1 pm, what do yall think?

I spotted this today and it’s transparent and solid but it’s not sticky.

Hi, I own a n. Tobaica and I have had it for a few months now, it hasn’t grown any pitchers yet so that could possibly be why. On the other hand, it could also be from my media, which is a VFT soil because I couldn’t find any nep soil (). I’m suspicious that it is dying from the root rot possibly caused by the wrong media.

This one is maturing into upper pitchers now

I’d previously posted about growing my vogelii without any issues, but I think I’ve jinxed myself. The leaf margins always turn brown and dry out, and the pitcher production has dropped. I do see two developing pitchers though. The new leaves always start out fine, then seem to crap out. The conditions in the grow tent are as follows:

Humidity: 70% during the day, upper 80s at night

Temps: mid 70s F day (roughly 23 C) and mid 60s (roughly 18 C) at night

Growing under bright LED grow lights

Fertilizer is applied every two weeks (Maxsea)

I’ve included photos of said plant. Any ideas as to what’s going on? Thanks in advance!

Has anyone had good luck with a short and wide pitcher in indoor conditions? Looking to add one of this general shape to the collection under a grow light and with a humidifier. Thanks!
