repotting nepenthes when they re out side for the summer


Question
All experts,

I am debating whether or not to repot my Nepenthes that I have outside.  Since they are currently under stress for having to acclimate to the outside conditions. Would it be okay to repot them now?
The plants are :  Maxima x sibuyanensis ,  ventricosa x Aristocliodies ,  Venticosa x boschiana, and chaniana x veitchii.  If there are anything else you need please let me know.

Sincerely,

Weylin Callery

Answer
Hi Weylin,

This is actually a really good time to repot them since they will have the summer sun to help them recover.  The only other advice I would give is to disturb their roots as little as possible since repotting always sets them back some.  Watering with some Superthrive after you repot will help too.  Give them a month to start producing pitchers again.  The hybrids you've listed are also pretty tough plants.

Good Growing!
