Pitcher plant growing leaves but no pitchers

Good day all! I’ve had my pitcher plant for a while and I’ve noticed that it’s not growing any new pitchers. Do I need to repot? The pot it’s in seems pretty decent size. Thanks!

Wow that is a large Nepenthes! Nepenthes tend to not pitcher for two reasons, either too low humidity or not enough light.

Not enough light, I’ve had that problem for years u til I actually had good lighting that was very bright and direct. Give it a brighter location and it should start pitchering. I don’t care for humidity but my humidity during day is 40-50 and at night it rises to 70-80 only cause the water in its media.

Thanks for the replies! I feel like it gets pretty good lighting but I’ll move it towards a south window!

Update: I put it outside and it has started to grow a ton of new pitchers!
