Is it in a grow tent, and if so, where did you get it?

Great job, and good luck!
Thanks, man it wasn't easy (took a lot of patience and hunting).

Yes, it is in a grow tent. Just a basic one from amazon (search greenhouse mad it's like the first one if memory serves).

Oh darn :/ I was getting hyped.

I'm not sure if that is something that is always true. I just noticed that a ramispina root cutting I had did not develop a full pitcher until the third leaf. One of the tendrils even extend on an earlier leaf but did not develop further. A plant that already grown a few pitchers (from a cutting) I also noticed had a few small leaves that had pitchers that never developed. I suppose you could always get lucky though!

I mean it makes sense. While I was waiting for my jamban (SG) to acclimate to my conditions, it grew 4 leaves with tendrils that produced little pitchers that just shriveled and died.
