Pitcher plant wake up..

[titom]

Hi! I would like to wake up my pitcher plants(sarracenia and darlingtonia). The old pitchers are now brown and green, with old flys in it: that maked some white and blue thing on the old pitchers. Then, I cutted the pitchers of one plant, cause I wasn't sure if I was doing the wrong thing. Tonight, I would repot them all in a fresh and new soil.

Do you think I am doing a good thing? Can you tell me what would be better please?
Thanks!

And... what is the best soil to use for darlingtonia californica? It is the same than sarracenia?

Soil for darlingtonia?? Loose man! real loose! Thats atleast what I find works for mine. I use all live sphagnum....in specific sphagnum megallicium or something like that. Its a very very open media with some bark in there as well. The moment I water the plant...it just comes out from the bottom. As far as I can see it works.
