If necessary, having a bit more sand than perlite or even peat should be good especially if it's coarse

Interesting, that's the same mix I've used. What's your take on adding lime?

I've heard it can help a bit but isn't really necessary. Some species will like it but others will be upset about it. Something about there being calciferous Pinguicula or something like that

I assume you'd have to look up which species are calciferous. I know there was a list online for a while
Also you could look up P. cylosecta lime rock and see what pops up

They recommend it for cyclosecta here: http://www.carnivorousplants.org/howto/ ... exican.php

I also used it with my esseriana

Well I have acquired a few more pings since my last post in here so here they are. The P. prim. and leaf pulls are in live sphag and all the rest are in the all mineral mix from Cascade Carnivores.
