Is ready to take this hobby to a whole new level
an activated node. I will now give an unenthusiastic 'hooray.'
A few weeks ago (while still in Germany) I made sure my girlfriend had tied the growth tip on my N. Velvet below the soil level. I have also planted it at a 45 degree angle. Upon arriving home, I noticed this...

Not the clearest, but my camera was running out of batteries, and I wanted to get my flower post up. (PLUG! If you have a flowering FEMALE nepenthes, this plant is male and flowering right now.) Anyhow, I guess the question is what can you do with a lame old activated node anyways? Besides now having some big ol' growth coming out of the side of my plant, I think it might probably be rather useless. Cuttings later maybe? Also, does this mean the arrival of the long awaited lower pitchers, or still the boring old green uppers?
