hello again
the mystery home depot nep is doing just fine as far as i can tell, its leaves look like they've perked up a bit and there are a bunch of new pitchers forming (they are fun to watch!). the concensus of the last post on the ID was a draw between an N. ventricosa or N. ventrata, too young to tell still. the one large pitcher did blush up a bit more though, if that helps anybody (original pics here)
i would like to know if i've been watering it properly though... i just kind of pick it up every other day to see how heavy it is, and if it's feeling a little light i water it a bit (distilled, of course). it's hard to tell exactly how dry it is or even what it's growing in since the top is pure sphagnum. in a related question, how good are nep's about repotting...?
also, one more random inquiry, how long do the new pitchers take to form? the newest one is just under a centimeter long right now and still kinda flat... i can't wait to see how big it'll be
