Default Re: Bical after repotting...

Ya.. after repotting to bigger pot, my bical's leaves grow to almost 1-2ft long and getting bigger.... pitcher size still consider small, I guess 1 to 1 (pitcher to leaf ratio) will be an exception for bical.

I'm not sure, but I have read that bical only starts producing huge 30cm pitchers when the tendrils rest on the ground and when the plant is sufficiently huge.. Don't worry guys.. This plant used to produce miserable (but cute) 1 inch cups for me too..

That thing is huge.... my bical is starting to get huge as well. Leaves are
getting bigger with every new leaf, pitcher is also getting bigger but still
small about 1.5". Im getting worried 'coz if this continues then i'll be running
out of space in no time.

hmm...once bical had pick up growing....it will turn out to be a monstrous plant in no time....mine starts to zig zag in the shed and resting its pitchers in other pots nearby...so if i need to do maintenance work, i have to be very carefull not to break the leaves tips.

It looks good. Looks like a pretty large size already.. I would just put it in a semi-shaded area and leave it alone.
