Hi all,
My cephalotus is resting on a East windowsill. With fall coming and the leaves on the tree falling, it get a little more light.
Some of the pitchers are turning yellow. Is it alright (because of the season changing) or should I start worrying about pythium ?
I perhaps overwatered it a bit the last month but it doesn't seems that much ...
I'll post a pic tomorrow if it can help.

My cephs seem to be cyclic with no obvious reason. Keep an eye on it, it may die back and start new growth again. If it's been a long time since repotting consider new medium.

I agree with Lloyd, cephs can have a random cycle for no clear reason. I have all my cephs pot to pot and have had one cephs drop every leaf and pitcher and start over and the ones 2 inches away just keep growing. Pics always help

Yellow pitchers has never been a good sign for me. The plant usually drops all the leaves and pitchers then starts over.

Thank you guys, here are the pics: On the pics, the yellow pitchers are facing the window and the green pitchers on the room side. [ It's been a year and a half since I potted it. I was going to repot in january but should perhaps do it now. Should I give the root a no-damp application ?
