I just got a Ventricosa cutting and I am keeping my fingers crossed. I hope I wont have to wait a year or more for this thing to pitcher.

I had a N.pilosa x veitchii that wouldn't pitcher, but when I finally got a garden sprayer. The pitchers started to swell, and some pitchers won't swell unless they are resting on lfs.
 
Has anyone tried fertilizing it and grow it warmer yet?
 
I think rainforestguys suggestion of growing it warmer would help. Also what is the humidity when you dont spray it? try to repot it into a much larger pot, then the humidity would rise even more around it.
