\*\*\*\*\[TLDR: What ratio/mix do you recommend for african violet based off of what I have? (Moss, Perlite, Bark, \& Potting Mix)\]

Hey! I’m repotting my plants from nursery pots \& want to make best ratios for them.  
For African Violets it says ratio of 1:1:1 using:  
-Sphagnum peat moss/coco noir  
-Perlite  
-Vermiculite.  
The problem is that I can’t spend anymore $ rn.  
This is what I have:  
-Potting Mix (Miracle Grow)  
-Sphagnum Moss (does NOT say peat…)  
-Repti Bark  
-Perlite  
1\. Is it imperative to buy vermiculite?  
2\. Can I just use potting mix since it has vermiculite in it?  
3\. Is sphagmum peat moss different than regular S.moss?  
4\. Is coco noir better than S.moss or a necessity in mixing soils?  
5\. What ratio/mix do you recommend for african violet based off of what I have?  
6\. \*Bonus Question LOL: Best way to prop African Violet? In soil? Moss? Bark? Water?stem with leaf or half leaf? Do you let it harden off first? Do you mist it? Put it in a covered container until it roots for the humidity? What’s your successful method?

This post stresses me out! 😂  
Please look up the African Violet Society of America. All your questions will be answered correctly there.

Lol I put a TLDR. Also I’m sure literally everyone’s questions can be answered by a website 😓

You’re right but you have so many questions here.. why not get your answers from the experts? 🤷‍♀️
