I'm surprised you know how much humidity you have :-). I don't. I rely
on how my plants look to determine if they're getting enough
water/sun/humidity. Your arrangement sounds OK to me, although letting
Nepenthes stand in water is considered a bad idea by some. N. are not
true bog plants, and so don't like soggy feet.

I've noticed that the small, growing, pitchers on my sarrs. are red
also, but this fades as they inflate. I have my sarrs growing outdoors,
where temps are 70-80 F during the day, and down to the upper '40's at
night.

Are you growing under artificial light, or sunlight?
