Hey everyone, my Muluensis x lowii was doing beautiful, even pitchering up until june, ever since then its been downhill, here are pics, any ideas whats happening?
i see someone deleted my photo, but what i was trying to say is mine looked like that after a mite attack, but it came back....maybe not quite that bad, but for awhile it did nothing and looked almost completely dead...hope it produces a basal or something for you...
thats exactly what mine did. newest and oldest leaves are dead and the middle leaves are at least semi ok. i dont know what killed mine but it went the way yours did =[

The reason I deleted the post was because it did not contribute to the discussion on helping carnivore diagnose his problem and was just a "here is my plant" picture post.
Carnivore - it's pretty serious, I would certainly isolate the plant from the others. I can't remember exactly, but I think something similar was diagnosed as a fungus a while back. I think I remember Tony talking in depth about it a while back on someone else's plant.
It has happened to me before on the same plant xvart, sorry i wasnt more detailed on that....
I dont think his plant is past the point of recovery, but its definitely getting there.
Basal production anyway, i think the growth tip is toast....or a node further down the vine, looks like the black death....
Edit:
looking at the tip some more, it looks like it could pull back, id definitely ask Tony P about this one.
Oh noooo!! Is it the dreaded black death it doesn't look like it to me... hmmm I remember I diagnosed DrWurms plant with Black death, i should look at mine again.
i wouldnt say its black death, just looks kinda like it, i guess after looking at it it, not all of the leaves have blackened off up to the growth tip
but i do think you have some sort of root rot issue. what is your media
