Couple years, give or take. Temp is the real variable; I don't use supplemental heat and my H. longimanus are pushing two years and not yet subadult.

yeah it seems to take quite a while for Heterometrus and Pandinus species. I have 2 P.imp's that I've had for 2 yearsish.. and they still aren't subadults yet. (they have been kept arounf the "optimum" temperature the whole time as well)
