True, light does effect the pitchering of most nepenthes. What you wanna do,
Griff, is to keep the highland species under about a 13-14 hour photoperiod,
and the lowlands under a 18 hour photoperiod. This also helps in increasing
the humidity. Also, check for alphids and fungi. IF there is a green film
over the medium, it's possible that it is fungi that is causing the delay in
pitcher growth.
Good luck once again.
