Managed to find some time to repot a few plants today. A task that I am always lazy to do. One of the plants is this large bical. My second bical rooted from a cutting done almost 3 years ago.

Time to repot... Latest pitcher with characteristic fangs. Roots haved filled up the whole pot. Very easy to pull out the plant.

it looks like it needs a lot more room. good thing your repotting it.

Very nice bical! Is that a 6 inch pot it's in?

OMG IT'S GORGEOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I'll buy some sphagnum off of you lol

And if you have a cutting I'll take that too

Very impressive. What fertilizers do you use?

do you grow that outside? what's your climate like?

ill take a cutting too

5 years ago, a couple of moss sprouted in one of the pots. Now, all pots are filled with them. This type grows fast.

I fertilize very rare and inconsistently. Using diluted chemicals salts, KNO3, KH2PO4, ... from macro till micro-nutrients into pitchers. Careful not to overdose. Probably optional. Most plants capture quite a lot of insects anyway.

Yes outdoor. I live in the same climate where wild lowland neps are growing. Perfect for them.

That's a very nice bical. How did you do a cutting for this species? I've been told that it very rarely produces basals.

I haven't gotten basal from bical either. But I have a large plant with 3m long vine. It produces a couple of side branches. Can take cutting anytime.
