This is P. Site 1 #2 x gypsicola. I haven't had it thru a complete carnivorous/succulent cyle. I can say it was doing fine. Lately I've noticed that the new growth is looking odd. I don't know if it's something normal (like the crown splitting or the start of the succulent phase) or whether it's a sign of trouble. It's growing under my lights in an all-mineral medium and being watered by the tray method. Anybody know what's going on? Thanks.

Looks like it's bedding down. Gypsicola often goes down fairly early; this trait can appear in some of its hybrids too.

I wonder if there is kondoi/reticulata in there, as one of my kondoi/reticulata has produced weird leaves that reminds me a lot of what's going on with yours.

Certainly could be something like kondoi in there. I've got zero info on Site 1, much less what #2 looks like.
