Hmmm. It sounds like it might not be happy as an outdoor plant, which is
where I'd be putting it longer term.
We're still getting night temps which dip into the upper 40's once in a
while. When that stops, I'll build a lean-to anti-rodent cage and move
some of my Nepenthes outdoors. My N. ventricosa has been outdoors for a
while now and is looking pretty happy. flourescents are definately no
subsitute for the sun.
