First time Nepenthes owner needing advice


Hi folks! Brand new grower here.

This little guy is on day 2 at my place. Unboxed yesterday from 5 day shipping.

Can anyone suggest what lux or FC level my grow light should be at for optimal bag acclimation?

I don’t want to overwhelm the plant thats been in total darkness for a few days but I know these guys like light.

Any and all advice appreciated as I try to get this guy out of quarantine and acclimated over the next few weeks.

Species: Nepenthes spectabilis x bongso

    Looks like it has been under a good light where it came from. I’d say the dark period was stressful for it so as soon as it can get back to the good light the better it will recover. I would put that light about 15 cm away from, assuming it’s Sansi.
