Three N. maxima hybrids in a terrarium with dappled light—only one growing. Two issues:
Maxima hybrids need very bright light (partial to full sun). Dappled light is insufficient. Move to unobstructed south/west window. Initial leaf burn is normal during acclimation—new growth will be adapted.
50/50 peat:perlite is only "OK" for Nepenthes. They need more oxygen at roots. Switch to 2:1 perlite:peat or use coconut husk for better aeration. Expect improvement in 2–3 months.
Increasing light in a terrarium risks overheating. Consider removing plants from enclosure—they'll adapt to lower humidity.
