Standard mixes (2:1 peat/sand for VFT, 4:1:2 peat/sand/perlite for Sarracenia, 2:1 or 3:1 for Drosera) all work interchangeably. For mixed containers, peat/sand/perlite or peat/perlite are fine—sand adds weight. Top-dress with live sphagnum (attractive, beneficial) except for small sundews it may smother.
Repotting frequency depends on conditions—every 2 years for small pots, longer for large planters. Superthrive reduces transplant shock, especially for sensitive-rooted Nepenthes.
