Standard 50/50 peat/perlite works if top-watering in cool conditions. Otherwise, use 1:2 peat:perlite.
Repot anytime if soil/pot need refreshing. Shipping cup was for transit only—not a humidity dome. Plants are pre-acclimated. Smaller new pitcher likely indicates a new offshoot, not a problem.
Good growing!
