Hi,

  The two most prominent factor that induces nepenthes to pitcher are Light
and water. Check whether u provide enough light and water to it.
I discovered that plants do better in outdoors then terrium, unless the
terrium is heavily lighted.

Lots of love
Jonathan Poh

P.S: N.rafflesina don't grow well with me. Sob!
