You are right about concrete vs. terra cotta. One takes heat to make it hard, the other takes a chemical reaction. That said, I've never successfully repaired either . . . . . sorry. Perhaps a concrete sealer after the repair will make the repair last longer - at least trying to keep the moisture out.Concrete is nothing like terra cotta, however. I gave up on large terra cotta pots that are too large to bring inside and which just cannot take the freeze/thaws of winter.
Best of luck in your repair efforts.
