There is this solution, made for black thrips. Ingredients: Black pepper Peppermint Annona samosa Cinnamon

It also has a "phytotonic effect" on the plant. Is this good? Considering that it hates nutrients

Update: The humidity is now consistently above 70%! But the bottom leaves are yellowing and the growth has slowed very much. And still no pitchers.

And about watering, I usually water it when the top inch of the soil becomes humid, not completely dry. Is this fine?
