Growin...
I don't think caring for frail, damaged, and dehydrated plants that may be shipped to you is covered in the basic care guide of these plants. I was sharing my findings in the quest to provide care to my ailing and sad looking plant. I understand if this might be old news for most of the advanced growers on here, but I'm still learning how to cure plants of ailments. And I do apologize if I overlooked some advice earlier, there is a lot of content on this thread and I do enough reading these days in school!
I'd consider myself an experienced grower because if you handed me most of the highland nepenthes I normally grow, I'd know how to fufill it's basic requirements based on the time I've spent growing them.
So far in the same month, I've had first time run-ins with pests, root damaged plants, and irresponsible vendors, please cut me a break sir!
