I keep my neps in little pots therefore they stay small. some of you may be asking why I don't just move them to a bigger pot? Well it's because I don't have room for that

The only exception is my ventricosa from leo song which I have outside.

Also, my ampularia main stem is getting so long that it travels around my terrarium and gets in the way. ugh..

Can anyone think of a creative solution? I'm tired of having my bical 7 inches diameter for like 2 or 3 years.

Oh, also if somebody could post that technique for growing the "pygmy nep" thing with big pitchers & little leaves, that is quite acceptable too.
 
Well, for smaller diameter plants with larger pitchers, sometimes higher light levels can help with that. However, there is a limmit to the effect, and they still do vine.

Best option: Buy greenhouse
Second best option: Move!

^ditto on that tip
 
Um. I think Schloaty covered the question quite well. Bright light makes the pitcher: leaf ration in favor of pitchers.
