Growing highland nepenthes

[soonsuseong]

thanks a lot, ifurita, your advice will come in handy. most of us here itching to grow HL are thinking of hamata, aristo, inermis, rajah etc as the ultimate goal. villosa.... with the height they grow on at kinabalu, its a tall order. the sight of the wild plants with their pitchers are a sight to behold! hope your next attempt will work, all the best! about lighting, yes, i will rather try to have more lighting than less. if it is too hot or bright, can always reduce it, with tinting or shading etc. but if it is too dim, then too bad. there goes the electricity bill and i noted plants growing under sunlight are always superior to those under artificial lights, anyone disagree?

robert, having a timer is a must to avoid all the switching on and off, but what you suggest is even better, humidity control! but i am not sure who can do that and at what cost. i think one cant go too wrong if he sets the humidifier timer to mist at regular intervals.
