Hi everyone -
I got this P. moctezumae about a month and a half ago from an online vendor. It came growing in LFS, and I decided not to repot it into a different medium based on the experiences of some members on this board.
However, since I got my plant, it hasn't grown at all. It also hasn't produced any flower stalks.
I have it growing in my grow rack which maintains temperatures of around 70 degrees at night and 85 or so during the day. Humidity swings between 55% at night and 80% overnight. I'm watering it using pure RO water on the tray method, and I mist it every two or three days. As for lighting, it's under 4x 32-watt 48" T5 bulbs - a mixture of 2x Zoo Med Flora Sun grow bulbs and 2x GE cool white (4100K) bulbs.
Am I missing something here? I've read that the plant should do pretty well under these conditions. Then again, I'm just a n00b!
Is it in its non-carnivorous winter phase? Can any of you tell by looking at the leaves (see below), because I haven't been growing CPs long enough to see a ping in its succulent state.
Any suggestions? Many thanks in advance!
