# Hey there! I bought this Nepenthes 6 days ago \& repotted her 3 days…

_Posted by Sarah on 2023-06-16_

Hey there! I bought this Nepenthes 6 days ago \& repotted her 3 days ago using a carnivorous plant mixture. I use distilled water always. I’m new-ish to these types of plants and accidentally repotted her into a terracotta pot without knowing they aren’t supposed to be… should I wait to repot her again to a plastic pot? How detrimental is terracotta? I don’t want her to stress out with a recent potting change. Thanks!

Hmmm… I think it might be alright, just maybe try to clean the outside of the pot with a wet cloth. It may help a bit.
