Does Nepenthes need sunlight to grow? How to grow it well?

1. Do we need the sun?

Nepenthes does not need sunlight when grown in a sealed environment. When growing it in a sealed environment, you need to provide it with a humid, hot, dark environment without light. It must be noted that it is very afraid of strong light, so it must not be placed under direct light for maintenance. In addition, the humidity of the environment for keeping it in a stuffy state should be high enough and not too dry, so you need to spray it with water more often.

2. How to grow well

1. Soil: If you want to grow pitcher plants well, you must use soil with good air permeability. Only when the cultivation soil is suitable for it can it grow better. You can prepare a mixture of peat, sphagnum moss, charcoal and fir tree bark. Or you can use river sand directly for breeding, and try not to use other soil for breeding.

2. Light: It likes shade, so you just need to provide it with good scattered light. When the sun is strong, you must provide shade to prevent it from being exposed to too strong sunlight.

3. Humidity: It likes an environment with high humidity, so it must be replenished with water in time. If you are raising it in the southern region, you can spray it with some water every 2-3 days. In the north, you can just use the method of stuffing it.
