    Mine looks roughly the same size but has only a fraction of a nub visible. I have a BE clone, are yours seed grown?

    Very nice! Hopefully one of us gets different sex then we could get seed. Yes these two are both from seed.

    Looks great, Mikhail! Is N. macrophylla in the background from Wistuba? How old is it? Mine is growing (produce new leaves), but the size seems to grow pretty slow (and smaller than yours). I'm growing it at 50F/70F. Is your temp around this range?

    Thank you chuck!
    Yes that is N. macrophylla from Wistuba, good eye! :) I've had it for two year now. I keep the temps exactly the same as yours. What i've noticed for most species is that this small size takes 1 to 2 years where it looks like they don't grow then they just start doubling each leaf growth, by year 3 or 4 I have huge plant. This N. macrophylla is just starting this for me.

    Here is N. macrophylla when I first got it May 2016.

    Here is N. bongso I got at that point where it was just about to take off. Two years to date it looks like this. I have many that have done this now.
