First it was slow and I understand that they adapt and now its rapid, each one is dying, but it still has new growth. Cause?

My own homemade mix is similar but I also add vermiculite and orchid bark too. All of it in equal parts. But your mix is good.
Ishaha wrote:Wow thanks a lot so The blackening is sunburn annnd I should put it behind some taller plants?I do have one plant that does actually require high humidity and also I have to put some ice with it at night. To keep it *alive*, not just to pitcher. So this is not true with all pitcher plants. The kind you have does seem to be specifically bred to be easier to grow so that's why I made those recommendations.
Ishaha wrote:I will do that, The leaves guy worse so today I'm doing thatOne more thing, older leaves on the plant do sometimes turn kind of yellow and die off naturally. The burning that I see on your plant looks like it's mostly just happening on the lower, older leaves? Take a look at the photo I shared of my plant, it's tall and looks like it's on a long stem. That's because I cut off the leaves that were yellowing and turning brown. If your plant decided to end the lives of the older leaves, that could also give the impression that the burning is getting worse, too. But it could just be the plant sacrificing a few to use their energy while it's adapting. Here is a picture of an aging leaf:
