What is this on my pitcher plants' new growth

It's white so is it a bloom. I think I might be giving it to much light but I moved it further from the light 2 months ago but I don't know if it likes it yet. #carnivorousplants #pitcherplant #help

It looks like the white fuzz elk horns and air plants get to attract and preserve moisture. Best GUESSES from these are still just a touch too much light (by about half an hour) and humidity might be hovering a little low, between 50-55 instead of over 55. Do you have a hygrometer?

@PoisonIvys Yes, but it was pretty high were I had it but I've just recently moved it under some diffrent grow lights and it seems to be doing better it doesn't have sun stress anymore.

You could try misting, but I have noticed my nepenthes that grow lighter baby traps tend to have lighter fuzz. I haven’t seen a bloom from any of mine yet so I don’t know if it’s that but mine are fairly new to me really

@PoisonIvys yeah me too; the only carniverous plants I've owned before are venus fly traps, a few sarracenias and a couple of pings. But my average humidity is around 50% on one side of the room but I plan on investing in some mini humidifiers for a few particular plants like my poinsettia.
