Really chuffed to come across your videos, as its all well and good to read up on how to care for CP's. To me its better to watch how someone else tend to theirs, also because I've bought good quality plants from you, it's good to find these videos and learn how to get the best out of my own collection. Latest plant I got from you was a N. hamata x singalana, that I've repotted into a hanging basket and left hanging on our prunus outside and it seems to be liking the summer we're having here in the northwest.
It can be reused for bog plants as they can suit more acidic soil. Nepenthes shouldn’t really be in the mix they use. It will work but there is a higher chance of root rot in nepenthes when using peat moss due to how easily it can be compacted. Even with perlite and sphagnum mixed in it still stays very damp. I would recommend using sphagnum moss and perlite in a mix

The compost coming off the plant, can it be reused?
