Nepenthes Ventricosa Turning Yellow in Bright Warm Conditions

Normal Color Shift

N. ventricosa in a cold frame greenhouse (80s°F day, 60s°F night) turns yellowish. This is normal in bright, warm conditions, especially for this species. If pitchers form well, it's fine. If excessive, provide slight shade with neighboring plants.
