Hi everyone. I bought my first vft yesterday and I'm looking for some advice if I should repot or not. It looks pretty crowded in the pot that they are in right now. Ive spotted three big leaf rosettes so far, and one very small. The bigger traps are stretching out over the others rosettes and the tiny traps on the small rosette. The plants are pretty pale where they have been covered by the other traps. Advice is very much appreciated :D

I wouldn't repot it until next spring.

What you want to do now is acclimate it to full sun outdoors, slowly.

Or you can do what I do and just throw it out there.

Thank you! It sits on my balcony with a few hours of sun in the morning, and the rest of day bright shade. It's doing great so far!
