Marvin, I'd say in general yes, but there are species that are just too sensitive that disturbing them might kill them. I know for a fact that Bicalcaratas are very sensitive. Some of my Alatas does not seem to be too bothered. The main symptoms are lack of or very slow new growth. Cuttings are probably doubly more sensitive to root being disturbed.

Sure Arvin.Just a thought, we can't list species specifically unless some are really sensitive.My point here is we can't state a species that it's not sensitive to root disturbance as generally all neps are sensitive to root disturbance.
I think we should open a new thread in nepenthes database to show the cultivation guide and there we will include the sensitivity of neps towards root disturbance.What do you say?
.My bicalcarata took 2 months to recover just because i straighten up the growing point.
