Can i leave this guy outside now?

[Toodles]

And should he be in a tray?

Sun is always good for Sarr's. Full summer solstice sun at once after lights, maybe not. Careful titration is a good idea. A tray is always good, unless you are perfect at watering.

The indoor grown vft will acclimatize meaning the indoor grown leaves may die out especially if the sun is very hot during peak summer. The late summer sun probably should be ok now.

It will fare better outside, it looks 'green' due to lack of light, and the media looks a little too dry for a purpurea's taste. Definitely stand it in a tray of water.
The sun will burn the leaves unless you acclimate it to full sun gradually, but its worth doing as it will intensify the colours.

Yeah I have it outside now on my deck receiving morning sun for the moment. And it’s in a tray so it should get happier

 

[Toodles]

He’s not looking good

The plant looks OK. It will get some colors. Does acclimate it progressively.

 

[Toodles]

Yeah the temp at night is slowly dropping

Bit of a shame, but it looks like some sunburn to the pitchers, it will look bad for a while, and you may lose some of those leaves later, but the new leaves will be redder, hardier and ready for anything that gets thrown at them. They really are tough as old boots. Precivere mon brave.
