The curiousplant pinguicula mix seems excellent to me

mine are at the moment with a just damp substrate, from mid May I will take them outside to shelter from the sun and rain, watering will be every 15 days by capillarity, the water will be water of rain that I catch from my roof

Sounds good! I basically recreated their mix and put a tiny bit of peat in just to hold things together. It's almost entirely #20 sand, vermiculite, perlite, and a spoonful of dolomotic lime. Definitely looks much better than the old mix I had the pings in lol.
