I have never, repeat, never seen anything worth buying for growing
CP in a store or cataloge. Most growers I know construct their
own terrariums/ growing areas. This has worked very well so far
and I'm finishing up the construction of a 300 gal nepenthes growth
chamber for low-land Neps. When using your own designs you can take
into acount the number of plants as well as their lighting needs
so as not to waste space or light and that = saving money.
