Okay, so I'm month 3 almost.

Yea they are slow but he ain't dead.

Or should I say THEY aren't dead.

Best pictures I can get.

You can only see maybe 3 growth points, but I see 5
Don't know if they are basal or accidental seedlings. 5 or 6 either way at the moment.

Could be extra seedlings or due to TC hormones, but looking good either way!

Thanks brother moon!

It would be cool but not cool if it was tc. Only because sb said there seed grown. So id, get multiple plants, but still didn't receive the truth

Update ***
So far, he is appearing very resilient.
I got back from a fishing trip last week, and had no one able to do the temp switch for me, so I sat him in a tiny cup of water a bit, with a clear cup over him by my window and hoped for the best.

Came back 4 days later and still doing well.

Now almost two weeks later were still trucking along!

I count 4 growth points! Neat.

Check out my biggest pitcher yet!

Very very nice. Consider injecting one of those tiny pitchers with dilute fertilizer!

Hi Bhart90 !
How do you give your N.rajah constant cool temperatures and a good night temperature drop?
I'll be getting some N.rajah seeds in a few weeks so please tell me about a good setup!

Hey vibhuti, I'm the last person to ask for advice on them, my friend.

I put my rajah in my mini fridge at night, at a temp of 52. With a lid over to raise humidity to 97%

Here we are again.

Also got another rajah, this one is from predatory plants.

Also wondering when is an ideal time to attempt to divide my rajah, the first one. It has 5 growth points, and one of them is actually growing taller than the main plant

They're hardly competing for space so I would leave them on for a while longer. The longer you leave them, the more time they get to develop roots.

That looks great! I got one from PP about a month and a half ago and it was not happy with the adjustment. It is just now starting to make pitchers again, and I definitely can sympathize with your anxiety over fertilizing. I have had an unopened container of Maxsea for about three weeks :lol:

Been a long time. Here we are again.

The smaller one is from pred. Plants I believe. Its having tough time growing p e r i o d. Might stuff some moss in top to help pitchers inflate.

Also. I love those multiple growth points :)
