I have a small butterwort. It seems to be doing well, but is outgrowing its pot. I would also like to propagate it to increase the pest control.

What would be a good do-it-yourself soil mix?

I currently have pumice, regular potting mix with worm castings,  
MAYBE a little coarse horticultural sand/ coco coir  
And will be getting perlite tomorrow.
