I use just pure live sphagnum moss and loads of rainwater...
Darlingtonia are my CP 'weed'!

Take a look at my webpage below for an example - the one in the photo
was a runner taken from my main plant and left potted for 12 months.
The main plant is not shown yet but has been undisturbed in a 2'
terracotta planter filled with sphagnum for over 3 years - all I do is
nip off the runners from around the edge each year.
