Hello,
I am back from a 5-day vacation in Borneo (I'll post about it later), left the maid to take care of the plants, and I have noticed that 2 new leaves of my smallest burmannii are turning brown. Everything else looks great as normal. Maybe just because it's flowering?
Water: Rain
Flowering progress: Almost flowering
Aphids: Removed, they all fell into the traps :twisted:
Food: 2 or 3 ants
Temp: Always 26C+ (78F)
Notes: Burmannii actually occurs around here though I've never seen a wild one.

Feed more?

More feeding? Not enough sun? Idk without a pic.
Also, did you see a lot of neps in Borneo?

It will be a bit hard taking a pic but I'll try. The new leaves are brown at the "heads" and are crunchy

No, I did not see any Neps I just went to the beaches

Happened to my plant too, not much water probably? They like being waterlogged.

Crunchy probably means not enough water.
