Cephalotus pitchers - How long?

Welp, I'm so proud of Jimmy :D or should I say Jimmy and Timmy? I found out that there were two growth points. They seem to really like it in my terrarium becuase they're still a dark green and the 'fists' it came with (not including the one that seems to open anytime soon) stopped growing for a while and now it's showing outrageous growth. The little 'fists' have now taken shape of a pitchers. One of them started to make a new pitcher and it's been growing fast, too. I noticed the other started to make another 'fist', too. My questions is, how long does it take for a pitch to form on a Ceph, especially when it's smaller than a dime?
 
It depends on the size of the pitcher that "fist" eventually becomes. I took a look at the pic you posted on the other thread and I would say 2-3 weeks. :)
 
I would say 2-3 weeks. :)

Thanks Cindy. I can wait that long. Cephs don't really seem to be that slow to me. I was actually able to tell a difference in 24 hours. Thanks again :D.
 
if you ignore it. itll grow twice as fast! :) haha but really it seems slow when small. when you get more growth points it will get big. fast!!
