So I have this 8 baby mirabilis green and I just re-pot them today. They were 2 batches of shipping from the same nursery.
I gave the first batch tall cup covering for at least 75% of their 1 week time.
The second one didn't have the same privilage. :(
You can see from the difference in color and growth even though it's only 2weeks difference in shipping.
.
The gracilis was just arrived today..
.
Hope everything will grow BIG AND PRETTY. lolz

Nepenthes dont like wet conditions at all! I have experimented that,some of them died.
You can use "rinsed" coco husk to be on a safe side.Or water infrequently if you have this media only.

I can only water it once a week. So I think and hope its's quite safe. Lol...
The nepes will have 2 wet days (water in tray 1 cm) and 3 dry days (dry water tray but still moist moss)...
I hope this wont matter to the plants. I hope.
