I can lower the humidity some if that might be a problem. The plant is about 2.5 inches in diameter, and is very healthy. Could it handle 80F during the day?[b said:Quote[/b] (shokuchuu @ Mar. 13 2006,8:52)]Humidity during the day might be too high, but that really relates to how much light your plant receives. More humidity = more light. This has the advantage of
1. literally giving your plants the amount of light they appreciate while keeping humidity high, hence their growth is vigorous, and
2. Despite the high humidity, light hardened plants have the required cuticle to withstand drops in humidity (when cleaning out terrarium, trimming, etc.).
Your temperatures sound about right! You can go a little warmer during the day from time to time, and 50F at night won't hurt the plant.
Have fun and good luck, it's one fun species to grow!

My indoor conditions...
During summer- 90's day/70's night
During winter - 50's day/ 30's night
Must've been a pretty tough raff.[b said:Quote[/b] (CopcarFC @ Mar. 13 2006,10:35)]My indoor conditions...

I can keep humidity around 60-70% most of the time. So far, Ventrosa-trada, J. Finn, and Raff's have survived these conditions.
Just make sure you give it cool nights as I think that that is the reason it is doing so well.[b said:Quote[/b] (LLeopardGGecko @ April 17 2006,6:22)]That's great to heard Dewy! I'm glad your N. hamata is proving to be so vigorous. This is the week I'll be receiving my N. hamata, so I'll be sure to post here once it arrives.
