You probably want a picture too 😅 some older pictures, along with the change in lighting LUX value.. 16k to like 4k

Newest leaves are looking healthier, and it’s forming pitchers again after dropping its original pitchers

Ahh, i see what you mean; mine came in with light damage and am just now getting it back to its original size. I’m finding that you pretty much have to regrow what damage was with light. No leaf jumps, pitchers shrink back to when they were at that stage in the plants life :/ The only thing you can do I guess is feed the pitchers and hope for a leaf jump. (But that’s just me, your plant could be different :) )

Yeah, the pitchers were a surprise to me also. They’re like the thinnest little papery things you’ll ever touch. It’s amazing how they don’t just get demolished in the wild.

Mine came in fit as a fiddle, light damage was self inflicted. I had read they did not like light but wanted to test my luck 💀. Was told the smaller leaves are an effect from high light. So hopefully in its new setting leaves will increase in size again, otherwise I’ll decrease lighting further
