Ban aik, sorry to hear that. I get this on first day with last pot at 6:30PM and second day I went there again, there is another with blooming flower at around 1PM. That should be the 7th pot.

Aaron and KC, I was planned to get this when I am trying to build my cooling task. Even my task not completed. I still get it to earn grow experience.

Hey Ban Aik. We were not the first to get them. It was a Penangnite. I was there on Saturday to get mine and out of all the plants, one was outstandingly beautiful and guess who already booked it... our Lim (picesilim)! He's even faster than all of us.

Well done on the Sun Pitcher. One of local members of the ACPS does grow these very well. He reckons that it like bright conditions, he keep winning the monthly award for best plant at the meeting. Also he recommond a feed of very diluted sealsol and liquid fertilzer, applied to the foliage, once month.
I would still keep it cool, I grow mine in the shadehouse. They are starting to pick up.

Khoas,

Can I use follia fert? Those that I use on my Tillandsias. Maybe that would help my BE clone to grow bigger pitchers. Pitchers do not seem to be getting bigger although it keep growing more new traps.
