Nepenthes Not Pitchering? Lower the Plant in the Window

A grower’s Nepenthes in a high window got dawn–2pm direct sun but no pitchers. Photos showed plants hanging in the upper window.

Jeff Dallas spotted the issue: angle of incidence. High-hanging plants receive far less light due to sun angle. Lower them into the bottom third of the window with extension hooks/chains. Light intensity doubles on the shelf. With lengthening spring days, pitchering should improve quickly.
