Default Intermediate conditions?

Now, based on these two pictures, what are your opinions, guys? From my experience, N x ventrata produces small and green coloured pitchers in lowland conditions and dyeriana usually retains a greenish peristome. But as you can see, this x ventrata pitcher that first developed in my house has some reddishness in it and my dyeriana peristome has coloured up to a very reddish colour.

I have typical hot and humid daytimes but in the night, it's rather cool, kinda like an aircond.

If I have intermediate conditions, I'll be more confident to grow intermediate neps and some highlanders.

Judging by your surrounding pictures of your house with the vegetation humidity is higher and of course cooler temps from the city

Certain times of the year (when raining yet sunny), my ventrata retains such colouration also. dyeriana peristomes turn darker with age, kind of like Miranda..
