Hi all. Several weeks ago I bought a couple of ventratas and until recently they seemed to be doing well. Both are now starting to show a general "yellowing" of the leaves and one (see pics) is getting some reddish spots on some of the leaves. They're both putting out new, healthy leaves but no pitchers yet.
They get watered every 2-3 days, get direct windowsill sunlight for 4-5 hours and LED grow lights for another 4-5 hours each day.
I haven't been able to find a cause for the yellowing other than *could be* too much water or not enough water. Same with the light; too much or too little will cause yellowing. There were a couple of articles that talked about red leaves resulting from too much light, but there were no pics I could find. It's confusing.
I'm definitely on the uphill side of the learning curve with Neps, so all advice is welcomed. TIA
