Hello I just received my Nepenthes Alata in the mail as of 9/23/20. I had them under 2 grow lights of the same type. At first I had them between 12-13.25” From the tallest point of the plant to the grow light. I started noticing what might be a glossy burn or something on the petals, where it might be turning red from the light bulb. So I moved the lights away to where it is now up to 17” away from the tallest point of the plant and on the 9/25/20 I received an reflective insulator to help with loss of light and maybe to help store humidity once I get my humidifier in the mail.

But as for now the plants are in the greenhouse getting the humidity and sunlight it needs!
