# Growth Question: I have a nepenthes dyeriana that’s put out two new…

Growth Question: I have a nepenthes dyeriana that’s put out two new leaves within the past month, but the pitchers aren’t growing. I can see they are formed, but they are staying immature, and the most recent leaf is starting to fold like a taco.

I’m thinking I’m low on light or humidity. It’s in my shower with a humidifier as well, so I don’t think it ever dips below 70%. As for light, it’s about a foot away from a 24 watt full spectrum light, and gets 12 hours of light a day.

I figured it out! For anyone wondering it was drying out to much between watering.
