I wanted to know if my terrarium conditions are right for highland Nepenthes, I'm not really sure.
Humidity:
Day- 77%-81%
Night- 93%-95%

Temperature:
Day- 84-86 Fahrenheit
Night- 60-65 Fahrenheit

Light:
I use a 60 watt Dayspot Agrosun grow light bulb for 14 hour, and it's from buyplantlights.com

Soil:
2 part peat moss, 1 long fibered sphagnum moss, and 2 parts orchid bark ( I think that's right... I don't know...)
And I placed marbles on the bottom of tank.

I would say is the same thing for every CP plant, this sounds perfect to me, i don't know about the 2parts orchid bark, other than that sounds fine, from what i have being learning, the temps and the conditions in which you have your nepenthes are excellent, i would say you're doing everything correctly!!=)

hope some members help on this one!!!!!
